Title: mechanical injection question
Post by: L79_Acadian on March 24, 2018, 03:26:53 PM

Hi Spud, its been a while, but I have another question regarding injection. I am finishing a project, 388 stroker SBC.Anyways, I have a Enderle 80A-1 pump for the bug catcher on top of a converted GMC 6-71. I plan on running alcohol. I also have another Enderle 80A-1 to put onto another project with a 6-71 and a Hilborn 4 port on gas. Now the question, I have two 3-way shut offs, one with -8 fittings and the other with -6 fittings. I also have a return loop kit that has -6 lines on it. Would the -6 line ( from the pump to the barrel valve)  be sufficient to supply the barrel valve with enough fuel in the blown alcohol setup on the 388 Chevy? Or would it be better suited on the other project with the hilborn on gas?
 Thanks Spud, hope you can help me out, again
 Roger

Gas require less fuel especially injected.Where as blown fuel require lot more fuel.Gas gets #6 and alky get #8. JMO
