As some of you might know, we are building a idi dragster.....pump finally came today. I still need to get the governor/throttle lever housing for it...but any ways here it is: Bosch PPump

 

Well, it's.....uhm.......big. That's for sure.

Mike

 

wow.... uhh? for a IDI? wow

 

Thats gonna be nasty

 

personally i just put the air intake in a drum of diesel when it's needed in that quantity.

lol
is that input flange bigger than the gear?

 

Nice of you to join the ppump crowd 100hp free is nice. What are the specs on the pump is it benched at any particular cc. I think you should just go ahead and run a 13mm pump afterall whats a little overkill lol

 

The pump produces 340cc at 1400rpm (engine speed)

The IP gear is still bigger then this pump input.




Lol this will need some modding...

 

ought to fit nicely in the valley. LOL

 

Looks like the engine in my Toyota!

 

How much did you end up paying for the pump and where did you get it? Also are you gonna run it at the full 340cc or are you gonna turn it down quite a bit? That is a crap ton of fuel. Lol

 

lol @ toyota engine!
how the heck do you get an idi diesel to drink so much fuel? this is gunna be interesting.
any rough estimate for time frame the truck hits the track?

if you have to ask,you don't even wanna know.probably more than the average idi truck is selling for these days.

 

Well, hypermax has a pump you can buy, but it's around $6,800....then on top of that they wanted around $8000 for the gear cover/adapter parts that have been sitting on the shelf past 15-20yrs.....I got this one for................$650!......eBay bid lol these aren't the hot items I guess. Although as I said I still need a few things for it but will come out MUCH cheaper then hypermax "kit"

I don't have my engine at my house so I can't really start mocking anything up yet...so time frame...I'd like to say before the year is over but idk, might be sooner, might be later

 

Go Big or go home..... Just build a bracket to fit on top of the engine and chain drive it. Its a drag truck not a DD. open the hood spraylube the chain, spray in some starting fluid close hood start it. Line it up, Smoke show... Easy, simple and strong. You could also put a pivit and a arm with a hyme end for running timing changes, with some tuning you could make quick timing changes from marks you put on the mount. Or you could do it how ever you want to just thinkin out loud. Can't wait to see this beast when you get it running I will drive down to watch it run.

 

Man, if Brandon chain drives that ****, Ill will be pissed...

He has an IDI guy with a machine shop in his garage, that is totally into this project and would donate labor, about 10 miles away...

He's got no excuse but to have a professional-assed build...

 

"professional-assed"



More professional-assed then the H-max idi?
