The tank pump has the part noAC6443327 - think its the injection. Purchased the tank as a spare now need to install it in the car. This is the specs 

222 L/hour

168L/hour @ 3bar

126L/H @ 5 bar

Max pressure 6.6Bar 

Just need to confirm

Looking for information on the in tank fuel pump output pressure ?  

Thanks Neil

Looking for a Sigma exhaust manifold any available?  - thanks Neil 

Crossflow it is! Now the   gearbox question  - Sequential  or H pattern.

David ,  Yes it is a live axle . Its fully braced with Quaife half shafts and LSD. Don't expect I will see any issues other than the A frame mounting bush. 

 There's option to turbo the Crossflow. Its has a steel crank and rods with low compression pistons . Its just the weight issue compared with the Sigma. The end result will be about the same 180bhp 

Caterham 1996 live axle  - originally had an asthmatic 1600ccc crossflow.  We initially fitted a supercharger however had heat and packing issues.

Have been told a sigma engine  offer the best balance option for a Caterham . The car is used 40% road 60 track. 

Whats the general consensus ? 

Paul , If you want to give me a call on 01738 550005. Have an 1996 live axle project car for sale

Wanted - Sigma exhaust manifold - retrofitting Sigma engine into a 1996 Crossflow engined  car.

Nice job. Any idea on the numbers? 

Tried the 30mm Jenverys The injector is at a steeper angle making the fuel rail 20mm higher. Its above the bonnet line.

Working on a preperg carbon plenum it should solve the problem - oh for a 3D printer. 

No, Fitted a Arrows steel crank ,forged pistons, steel rods and  ARP bolts  .

Every thing was progressing:

• Intercooler fiited
• Drysump tank fitted and plumbed 
• Oil to water cooler fitted
• Electric water pump fitted
• Supercharger oil cooler and plumbed and fitted
• Injection fuel tank fitted

Then the problems: 

• Fuel rail on the 30mm Jenvey throttle bodies is to high even with short injectors
• New plenum fouls the engine bay crossmember​ 

Now reverted back to 114mm throttle bodies and custom prepreg carbon inlet. Will be glad when this one is done! 

The English axle as been re-worked at Arch. Interesting comment about widths  both are on the workshop floor Ital and English will do a few measurements.

The English axle has been converted to discs and has an alloy diff carrier and TranX LSD. The halfshafts are standard  undecided on converting to Quaife  Group A with a separate hub and bearing.

Its  been a long road! Had it on the dyno at 180bhp and 160ft/lbs with more leaks than the Titanic. Suspect its good for 200bhp.   The engine is moved back approx 75mm to accommodate the drive belts etc. Its also running a drysump lots of pipe work.

Currently working on the rear axle and front uprights/ brakes 

Running a 1750cc supercharged Crossflow Approx 180bhp.  The tyres  would be Yokohamas A048.

The reason for the the question is from a performance handling perspective. The car will be used for trackday mainly.

Rebuilding a 1996 Live axle car. Currently upgrading the axle to an English with LSD. The next issue on the list is the wheels.

Plan to run 13" however 15" are an option . Whats the best combination of size / offset? 

Thanks -  Found JP Racing at Silverstone.   

Are there any recommendations on getting my English differential  set up? Tried Steve at Trarcsport he's to busy at the moment.
