SLW42 Posted July 20, 2010 Report Posted July 20, 2010 I'm sure you would put a piece of rubber under them instead of solid mount them? Wouldn't you? Quote
Taz_Rx Posted July 20, 2010 Report Posted July 20, 2010 Yeah (just like a Holley bracket) but it doesn't stop it much still. Quote
LXY-642 Posted July 20, 2010 Report Posted July 20, 2010 I think the one on the car still is solid mounted. Might be able to see in the vid? Thanks for the link greenmac :laff: and thanks bezender will give it a hit see if it works, but if it needs to be hit I'll change it still. Also will put in the relay if it's going to make it a bit easier on it all ;) Quote
LXY-642 Posted July 22, 2010 Report Posted July 22, 2010 That facet in my vid would be f@$ked to be that noisy surely that can't be normal? Quote
Taz_Rx Posted July 22, 2010 Report Posted July 22, 2010 Nope. thats normal for a facet. People only use them cause they're cheap compared to say a holley or carter. I'm pretty sure one of the other reasons they're so noisey is because they have an oscilating piston, rather than a recipricating vien system like a holley/carter. Quote
LXY-642 Posted July 23, 2010 Report Posted July 23, 2010 Ok then fair enough. I'm pretty sure it is solid mounted also which wouldn't help. I'll be fitting the Carter anyways :yes: up in qld atm Quote
bezender Posted July 26, 2010 Report Posted July 26, 2010 yeah the rear one is solid mounted. carter pumps, solid or rubber mounted are whisper quiet in comparison Quote
LXY-642 Posted July 27, 2010 Report Posted July 27, 2010 Sweet as :jamie: I'll be using the rubber mounts that came with it. Also hopefully only a few more weeks untill I have it running. Going to hook the intercooler up before getting it running also and fit the Carter pump a surge tank and the vl fuel pump. Want to get it running a1 before I pull the engine out to put my other 4k in for rwc then the turbo motor will go back in. Will have a tow car for it as of this weekend :blush: can't wait Quote
SLW42 Posted July 27, 2010 Report Posted July 27, 2010 Once you get a towbar fitted to the coon :jamie: thats the only thing it doesn't have :blush: Quote
LXY-642 Posted July 27, 2010 Report Posted July 27, 2010 Yeah that's it lol. But I know a place that hires car trailers for $40 for the whole day Quote
SLW42 Posted July 27, 2010 Report Posted July 27, 2010 Well 200 for a haymen and reese towbar don't sound to bad to me and all you have to do is fit it yourself lol and 40 bucks to hire a trailer all day is bullshit cheap Quote

Will have a tow car for it as of this weekend :bash: can't wait FYI - If you set up all of the fuel system for the turbo setup you can swap over to a stock carbed 4k with the same fuel setup no worries. You might just have to wind down the fuel pressure slightly if you're using a stock carb. :jamie: Here's a pic of how I set mine up with a guage..... The hose hanging down is actually the brake booster line (with I took the boost reference from). The fuel line to the carby is off the back of the guage, you can just see the brass fitting. :blush: Quote

Taz_Rx Posted July 28, 2010 Report Posted July 28, 2010 Photo makes it look worse than it is. There was still plenty of room there for the clutch cable. Catch can was only there to cover up a hole in the firewall from the hydro clutch that used to be in that car. :jamie: Quote
