Given how many close fits you have here, have you discovered the joy that is self-adhesive UHMW tape? I keep it on hand in a few thicknesses. When you have a couple of pieces of metal that you think might interfere, stick a chunk of the tape there. It will provide a self-lubricating wear layer that both prevents damage and serves as a witness mark so you know if contact is happening. It's also useful when you want metal to slide against other metal with relatively little friction, but there isn't enough friction to justify a more complex bearing.

It's awesome but the self-adhesive part is kind of sarcastic unless you acetone clean the paint and heat up both the thing you're going to stick it to and the UHMW strip with a heat gun slightly before you adhere them. It makes a significant difference in how well they stick. If you're going to skip one of those and cut corners skip the cleaning more than the heating.

If I’m reading it right, the FIA record for 500cc unsupercharged wheel driven cars is only 138 mph, which doesn’t sound like a lot when you say it quickly. (As an aside, some of the 500cc supercharged records are held by a 1930s MG!) Those are probably both direction averages though, which makes things quite a bit more complicated, and I’m not so sure speed week events do that 2 way running, anyway.

Something that you may find interesting is that running a mechanical water pump actually robs a fair amount of HP from the engine. It could potentially be worth it to explore the idea of running an electronic water pump to cool the engine off of a slightly larger light weight lithium battery(only larger if you decide to not run the rectifier for your runs). This method is newly being used in professional motocross where it’s gaining 3-5hp in 250cc single cylinders(this is with the little bit of extra draw from the stator). I imagine you could pick up a somewhat significant amount of hp for a very small amount of added weight. Especially with how much water is being pushed through that motor and the rectifier disconnected. Usually the impeller is just removed from the water pump and the shaft seal remains.

A lot of drag racer engines in some of the more "street" classes are cooled by an "ice box," which is essentially what you have already, just add ice. They run this "ice water" into the engine block. Doing that and eliminating the heat exchanger will be way more efficient. This gives you another 40 or 50 degrees lower water temp on the cool side.

Today I learned "Engineering Intuition" means "Add more struts". Also, if you're contemplating disconnecting your battery from its charger at high RPM, you may want to consider the weight and charge/discharge efficiencies of replacing the battery with a small super capacitor bank. You will need to jumpstart the engine from something else, but once it does start, it will run significantly better than with a lossy Lead-Acid charge/discharge cycle. Works Cited: My riding mower.

In front of the driver cage, there would ideally be a 'crush zone'. This implies not using simple longitudinal girders, but an angled-element (foldable) design that can smoothly crush for a more comfortable crash. Advanced designs would limit peak deacceleration force. Yes, acknowledge that it'll be run in an open area, but still... If there's a tree within 200 miles it'll eventually crash into it.

The latter (cutting one of the phases) is sometimes done in "professional" racing. BTW nice project :)

Since you had SCS make the exhaust flanges (not phalanges) you could also have had them make a dummy head for welding the exhaust. Also, do you use a gas lens on your TIG torch? The extra gas flow should help with the dark, grainy stainless welds, which is a sign of overheating the weld pool. Ironically, using more amps and manually pulsing the pedal (or using pulse if your welder has it) will also help with the overheating.

So... a thought... If you're going to use a 4 cylinder engine that's bigger than you need for the class you want to race, and you're already planning on deactivating some of the cylinders, it's possible to use two of the cylinders as a sort of supercharger. You'd have to somehow either replace the existing valves on those cylinders with reed valves, or - the "easier" route - you can have a camshaft ground with extra lobes for the cylinders you're using to pump air on what would ordinarily be the compression and power strokes. If you've already got extra pistons moving up and down, you may as well use them as a compressor to get some extra horsepower.

I'm interested in how well that heat exchanger works. 9:38 I have a turbo diesel with a air to water inter-cooler setup. I was looking to add a ice box without directly connecting it to the A2W loop. I had purchased a similar W2W plate heat exchanger so I'm interested how it works in your application. Love the content!

Heyyyy maaan!! No, I don’t think you will get into any trouble saying quarter midgets being in reference to race cars..!🤣 I say it a lot in my old videos that I took down many years ago. My kids raced them for years. Over 30. Nephews, my kids and ex girlfriend’s kids, so on and so on. AFCO shocks are awesome shocks to use. The internals are very adjustable and with Eibock springs you can really dial in the rear end. Hope this helps!! Ps. I liked the let’s install the motor comment with the engine clip! I mean, let’s be politically correct these days! 🤣🤣🤦🏻‍♂️❤️🙏🏻

Are those locknuts the high-temp (all metal) type? ie, not nyloc type? FSAE tech inspection wouldn't let us pass when we had nyloc nuts for fastening our brake rotors.

Do the rules allow for only one rear shock/spring? Removing one can save some weight, while potentially solving your over sprung/dampened issue.

He addressed this in an earlier video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iZ6pY2SXZ9SJn8U Short answer: perhaps/unclear, so erring on the safe side with two shocks.

It doesn't matter what other people do when they're not in the garage. That part of life is a waste. I put a desk in my garage so that I can do desk stuff there, too, when I need to. The garage is always a better place to be.

I believe you are now required to use excessively long rachet extensions through your engine mount access holes any time you need to mess with those bolts. Looking forward to the next progress update!

What if I'm in my garage watching you work on stuff in your garage? Will that create some kind of space time continuum paradox causing a black hole to form in the floor of my garage sucking our entire universe into oblivion? Let's find out.

I wonder if a RC style lithium batteries might save you some weight and complexity over a battery and charger as well as avoid any parasitic power losses.

I have been wondering if send, cut, send would be able to accurately cut sprockets out of a thick piece of steel or cut thin pieces of steel that could then be layered and bolted together to make a sprocket. Your machining of the sprocket makes me think that is a no. Or maybe something you simply overlooked. Amazing build keep up the progress.
