Re: Custom Intake Carbureted & Nitrous Setup
Jeff had to extend/modify the factory pickup to make sure there was proper pickup distance with the MMR deep sump pan and clearance with the windage tray. The MMR oil screen windage tray had to be modified also.
In the pics posted, he used clay to check clearance between pan & pickup. Here is an e-mail he sent me concerning this: "With the stock pick-up & MMR deep pan, the pick-up was more than 1-1/2" off the bottom of the pan. This would mean you'd have 2-3 quarts of oil that that pick-up would never get to. We had the pick-up extended by a little more than an inch (tig welded). You'll see the picture with the clay (before and after) showing that we have about 3/8"-1/2" clearance now, which is where it needs to be."

Re: Custom Intake Carbureted & Nitrous Setup
^^ jesus Phil....that is GOOD to know. I wonder if MMR offers an extended pickup to work with that deep of a pan??

Quote:
"Unlike some other brands the MMR pan works with all Longtube and Shorty style headers and works with the stock oil pump and pick-up or The MMR Street/Strip High Flow oil pump and pick-up tube. Available in Red, Black or Silver (powdercoat)" end quote I'm not knocking MMR, just advising no matter what deep sump oil pan you go with, you need to have this important pickup to pan distance checked. Then corrected if not within proper clearance. Plus, having an engine builder you can trust that knows all situations/possible problems to check during the build is very important. Also, we had the powder coating redone on my pan only to the outside since MMR coats the inside also. Can not take a chance of pieces of powder coating comming off. Same with cam covers and front engine cam chain/sprocket cover.

Re: Custom Intake Carbureted & Nitrous Setup
Some pics of the motor.
Problem with the MMR distributor drive off of the cam bolt. Jeff talked to Ron Robart of Fox Lake Power Products concerning some critical problems with this setup. To much slop between the socket fit to cam bolt. The cam bolt has been known to screw itself out under hard acceleration. The socket has been known to crack. The cam cover distributor boss does not align properly to the cam bolt. To many problems that can/will cause damage to the motor. Jeff is looking into a possible cog belt drive for a different distributor setup or modifications to the current setup. This will be something that will be approached without rushing it.

Re: Custom Intake Carbureted & Nitrous Setup
After hashing over what to do at the shop Saturday, Jeff & I decided to modify the exsisting distributor drive system from MMR and stay away from a cog driven distributor for now.. I also stand corrected about the drive socket cracking, I mis understood what Jeff was explaining to me from his talk with Ron Robart.. There are no reports of the sockets ever cracking and is highly unlikely..
I am going to get the distributor boss pilot bore on cam cover aligned with the Cam bolt. I will be machining the back of the cam cover to shorten it and at a slight angle, bringing the distributor pilot bore to cam bolt in line. This is with the cam cover torqued to proper specs.. Then we will pin the cam cover to the head, to insure it maintains this proper alignment. I will be locating different high quality sockets to acheive a tighter fit to cam bolt. If I can't find one, I will machine/EDM die sink a socket out of titanium. The current slop is about 1 degree, which is not really that bad compared to cam gear driven distributors. I will be pinning the socket to the 3/8" drive shaft on distributor, this will eliminate the socket falling off when removing the distributor. The 12mm SPS cam bolts have been installed to 105 in-lbs vs the factory 10mm bolts at 90 in-lbs. Plus a high quality lock tight used. We feel that with the proper alignment and eliminating any side load to cam bolt/socket drive, there should not be a problem with the cam bolt loosening.

We feel confident these fixes will solve any forseen problems. The idea of driving a distributor is actually a good concept, if proper alignment is acheived. The key is to insure all or very minimum side load when cam cover is torqued to spec. Also maintaining this alignment if pulling the cam cover and reinstalling it. The 2 dowel pins will insure of this.

Re: Custom Intake Carbureted & Nitrous Setup
Jeff has the harmonic damper installed and the MSD flying magnet crank trigger wheel. Since the factory trigger wheel (reluctant wheel) fits behind the damper, we needed a spacer of the same size thickness to retain proper damper location. I had the center of the trigger wheel EDM wired to a 2.90" diameter and Jeff used this as the spacer. In the pic, the center piece of the wheel is on the crank.
I also have to machine a bracket to hold/locate the MSD pickup, since this is a Chevy crank trigger kit. Jeff is designing one (probably on Pro-E) and when I get the print, I will machine it. Jeff found that the Sullivan intake mounting holes did not align exact to the block holes. The holes have to be slightly elongated, to insure no gauling of the aluminum block threads. Heli-coils inserts were installed for the (4) ARP 5/16-18 carb studs. The sullivan had metric threads.

Re: Custom Intake Carbureted & Nitrous Setup
More pics of motor with intake, ATI harmonic damper & MSD flying magnet crank wheel..
I have the MSD distributor, modifying the socket drive.. The composite spacer on intake, is Jeff checking for proper alignment when he installed the heli-coil inserts for the carb ARP studs. I have a Wilson tappered spacer (black anodized) & Zex perimeter nitrous plate that will be installed soon.. Topped off with a Proform racing 650 double pumper. I'm looking into filling the valley under the intake with a stainless panel..
