    so could an oil pressure gauge be hooked up at the same place you hooked in your feed line?

    yes it can just get a m16 x 1.5" to either a male -4an or .125" NPT, you can find the fittings on ebay for around $8

    • The post 600/750 are the ideal bike for a cooler, A side mount cooler......one would maybe need to clean up the fiarings around the big side vents but you have a ton of space for a small intercooler.

      Have you looked into getting a bigger oil cooler? turbos generate gobs of heat, a 750 cooler will be better for the turbo and the engine. you might even want to run a fan on the cooler.

      • why not run an 1052, 1127, or 1157 cooler

        • Heck just rig up a radiator and let the oil flow through that J/K!!

          • I believe a temperature controled fan will be fine with the use of a 750 cooler! the only other cooler I would suggest for the oil is aftermarket! I am concerned with the size of the airbox, lets just say from what I see it is going to be a tuning nightmare with the carbs.

              actually the plenum isn't that big.... as for cooler, im just searching around to find a bigger one. idk what its going to be off of yet so we'll see....

              Also, got the plenum almost fully installed (clamps and some more rubber trimming required)... then i get one of my horrible bad migraines yesterday so i didnt get one thing done, we'll see what happend's for later today..... bye

              also, i will be running an oil temp gauge, i haven't bought it yet though...

              • so im sitting here thinking... i could use some ideas on something..... where should i wire my scav. pump and my fuel pump in?.. needs to be off when engine is off (ideal) and off when bike is off.... it would be ideal to not need to run an extra switch. any ideas?

                • fused relay toggled when the main relay is powered up from the KS and/or the run-stop switch... use a Bosch (now tyco) cube relay like this...

                    • Let me explain my concern, even though I am sure you did your equations. The entrance of the turbo port will allow more air to #2 and #3 than #1 and #4. With that said, I don't know what the inside of it looks like. I know that the air flow has to be equal for each carb to react as they should. Judging by the size of the box, there isn't enough room for vilocity stacks, which would help in controling the forced air flow. I am not saying your work is shoty, I am just giving some constructive criticism so to speak. I really want this to work for everyone. Many do this mod with a Injection setup. I like what you have done so far! I can't wait to hear this thing run.

                      • lol well running, i might have quick fired it up and this things starts whining at 3- 3500rpm, it sure sure does have a noticeable spool. I should be able to run it within the next couple weeks. im stoked.

                            • just wondering, where does the hose running from the pilot tubes go? looks like one is going to the bowl vent tees, where does the other one go?

                              Comment


                              • oh ...ok I see what the could be problem is with the intake now that the pics are showing up for me...
                                as much as I hate to knock on anyones hard work that system is too short and is going to cause a lot of uneven and very turbulant air. the last thing you want is to for air flow in a 90o turn let alone under pressure. I would stronly recommend you redesign the intake plenum with sharter stacks in the carbs and a larger tapered plenum to eliminate the sharp turns the are has to make.

                                something more along this shape/design will allow for far more accurate fuel metering on each carb and way better performance.



                                One of the systems I built a few years back I made like yours.... I tried feeding it in the middle of the plenum as well as in one end. Neither way worked well and some cylinder were leaner then others and boost blled off was really bad. I had to double the size of the plenum and make it a wedge shape before it would evenly boost . when it did it produced WAY more power.

                                sorry to bust your chops on this... but you have the room if you shorten the stacks a bit on the carbs and make the plenum bigger and wedge shaped you will be much happier with the performance.... Maybe mount the blow off under the plenum for more room.
