When I built my fan and shroud, I put extra holes in the Fab shroud, then added rubber flaps over the holes, connected only at the top. When you drive, the holes/rubber blow open letting all the air through, when your stationary with the fan on, it pulls the rubber flush on the holes sounding the shroud , making a seal and pulling through the cores.

Regarding your comment about many people just wanting burnout and 4 rotor sounds content, I couldnt disagree more. I fully from the bottom of my heart wish there were more channels like yours rob. I have my own projects that im completely obsessed with and in my leisure time I love to see other peoples projects and how they work. I love to see how they solved problems and technologies that i havent seen, and even just absorb the style that other builders have. Your channel is absolutely my favorite in that regard. Your attention to detail and hardcore fusion of aesthetic style with engineering perfection is nothing short of incredible. Keep up the good work, your channel is great inspiration.

I have been doing flex fuel for 8 years. Seeing you go through this brings back memories, Specially with that drum rotary pump.

[@koollee]

Does that flex fuel cost more or less than the race gas?

[@KiwiTheKiwi24]

@@koollee Flex fuel refers to the use of pump gas and ethanol mix. If your car has a flex fuel system, then you can run any ethanol content whether 1% or 99%.. Your ecu will make the necessary adjustments to timing/boost/fuel. Ethanol is A LOT cheaper than race gas.

Hey rob, if you don’t already. Get a grounding clamp for the fuel drum. The fuel can ignite from the static electricity of it moving through your fill system.

Little thing about those measuring funnels that might make you like it better. Add and measure the oil, add fuel to the funnel “can”, mix a little, then open. Gets all the oil out every time 👌

[@andynolazco2581]

@Rob dahm. Double check that the two stroke oil isn’t bean oil(pretty sure Klotz is). Most E85 two stroke oil is bean oil which gums up. It leaves this white sticky residue and can be extremely hard to remove. There is lots of reports of bean oil making the seals sticky. Not sure this is an issue for you since you will be tearing down the motor often but I recommend Motul Micro 2T, it’s expensive but it’s the best stuff out there.
