Wanna come do mine next? It's warmer here and we'll feed you.....
Hey Dustin. No BOV. It's purely a drag bike, so it wont really see closing throttle unless something goes wrong during a pass. Wide open throttle for the majority of life from here on!Yeehaw brother! Have fun and take your time.
By the way, are you running a BOV? If so, where did you hide it?
Do you not ever need to get off the throttle in a hurry? I'm sure you're making big boost, a bov is cheaper than replacing throttle blades when they bend...Hey Dustin. No BOV.

Some people put them on, some don't. Not really 'required' for what I'm doing.
Every once in a while I may have to go from wide open to closed in a hurry. But that's only if the front end is coming up way to fast or its spinning extremely hard. If the front end is coming up and continuing to go up, part throttle works.Do you not ever need to get off the throttle in a hurry?

I thought bent throttle blades would also impede airflow at wot?Every once in a while I may have to go from wide open to closed in a hurry.

So yes, there's lots of debate on this one and I was running a BOV before, just opted for less auxiliaries to worry about. That's one less weld and connection I need to worry about. Plus less weight. Also, the only time throttlebodies are going to pose a problem is on idle if they are bent so starting would be an issue, not really during the run.
Some pst guys don’t run them for the thought that if they have to chicken wing it to get the front down, there’s less boost loss while doing so.I thought bent throttle blades would also impede airflow at wot?
I see you've done your research, and I don't doubt your commitment, it just seems like cheap insurance to me.
Hi. Are you going to use a laser off of the front wheel to pull timing when it gets to high, so you can keep it WFO for the full pass?Every once in a while I may have to go from wide open to closed in a hurry.

That is the plan for the future for sure!Hi. Are you going to use a laser off of the front wheel to pull timing when it gets to high, so you can keep it WFO for the full pass?
Hi .Did you see the one that reads the rear tire temp. So you can adjust you launch or keep it the same? They have to a lot of rules. I now like LSR I can do any thing to the motor I want. I want to look into having a billit head made. what are you using for pistons? what C/R? I have JEs that was custom made with my C/R is 10 to 1. Fast by Gast got them for me. Did you have the block sleeved?That is the plan for the future for sure!
There's a mix of people running them. Some run meth injection. But also now that we can run them using alchohol, more people are beginning to run them from what I've heard.Looks clean. Is it common to run a intercooler in your class.
Hi Very nice work looking good. Look in to DEI for heat control productsThere's a mix of people running them. Some run meth injection. But also now that we can run them using alchohol, more people are beginning to run them from what I've heard.
