Ok. I got the 7.5mm pump installed, plumbed, and running.
I made a block-off plate, to get rid of the stock lift pump. Couldn't resist the engraving function on the mill.
The Engine shock has to come out to allow room for the ALDA. there's no way you could fit both. Also the engine mount arm makes things very very tight. The only way the pump fits at all is all the way "advanced" in the slots. So wherever you install it at timing wise, thats where it will be - no adjustment.
I milled and drilled all the passages in the stock filter head as big as I could. Used a nice higher flowing banjo bolt and did the Baldwin mod.
(ignore the shitty clamp in the bottom left, it will be gone)
She's all in and running. Had some pretty spectacular leaks when I first keyed the pump
Fuel pressure is set at a constant 3 bar. Had an oscillating idle when it first started up but it seems to have sorted itself out. It seems very eager to rev, I'm wondering how tip in throttle will be.
So a review of all the fuel side mods -
-Enlarged prechambers
-315 nozzles
-7.5 mm pump
-Baldwin filter mod with enlarged passages in filter head
-Bosch 044 feed pump, 45psi
-Fuel pressure regulator
-6AN fuel lines all the way from the tank to the pump
I'm considering the fuel side completely done. All I have to do is wire up my fuel pressure gauge in the cabin.
