I talked to my dad after that last post, and without any prompting he says that we should pull those red filters and go up a main jet size. I about died. He's waiting on parts for the van so maybe he will do it before the test on Wednesday.

I had the same experience with All Balls seals once. Won't make that mistake again.

You are correct. I know many have experienced this in other scenarios too. We tried the car without the red pre filters and sure enough it went lean.

The truth is that we don't see enough track time to chase these types of things. Usually encountering other failures that distract us from really tuning the car and engine. Such is life in grassroots motorsport.

When I was driving professionally and we had mechanics and engineeers etc., the expectations were much different.

i test fit the 1st one w out dividers, was a bit too long.  it works but is jamming the filter into the battery box so i remeasured and shortened it by about 18mm, should be spot on now. even for use w a stock airbox if so desired. which i might print up a high flow lid and experiment w that as well

I see the red outer covers on your UNI filters and remember having to switch to bigger main jets when I slid them off of the RD400 filters.

Lost some coarse filtration protection but must have gained some top end.

Apples to oranges, though.

I finished prep on the car Saturday and it was ready to load. After testing the van while towing the trailer we decided to postpone our test at Nelson's until next week. I was watching the data on the transmission temps and when the torque converter slipped for any period, temps would climb pretty quick. This is with additional cooling we added since my last post. In my last post we noted high temps without the trailer. The additional cooler meant normal temps sans trailer. Then we tested while towing and found high temps again.

We have a lot of hills to climb in our region. Luckily we had penned in this coming Wednesday the 25th as a potential backup date. Hopefully the weather is good. The van should be ready. I am fairly confident the new cooler arrangement will solve the over heating issues. We should have it together today or tomorrow.



Bonus shot of the Mini. It hasn't been outside much. This is a project for August. It hasn't run much since we did the standalone ECU. I am looking forward to it. Maybe my dad will get the new composite hood painted too.
