I used rust mort on any surface metal after sanding to stop the rust. SEM Products Rust-Mort SEM-69504
a buddy of mine who does body work and paint for a living swears by the stuff. he coats all bare metal surfaces with it before painting to stop any rust from forming. I then coated the tank...
thanks for the info, it kind of makes you wonder why they made it so top and bottom come off. it really only needs the top to open and if the bottom was part of the housing then no worries about leaks.
and 1.5L should be more than enough since your mechanical pump will keep filling it. mines...
sounds like you scored on the surge tank. how do you like the design of it? i might upgrade to that set up if my current set up ever fails. size wise looks pretty small, please keep us posted as you continue your build i really want to know how it turns out and how you like it.
i would also...
found another good read for you, its all about 383's and tuned port intakes and the torque they can make down low. very impressive and capable of big block torque in a small block package.

terrx pretty much summed it up in his post. I would look at the cheaper surge tank with just the pump in it. your stealth ram should of had a factory pressure regulator with it on the back side on the feed pipe. you might contact Holley and see if you can get one if you didn't get it with the...
i would still run the return line from the rail, your injectors can only use so much fuel and any exrta needs a way to return to the surge tank/main tank.
holley makes good injectors! I believe Holley and accel are owned by the same company. 36lbs sounds a little on the high side but again flow can be adjusted with the regulator a bit and the computer will also help to lean it out as it learns and tries to stay at 14 to 1 ratio if you have an O2...
may I chime in here? nice system you picked up especially if you got a deal on it. did you get the injectors with it? if not may I suggest accel injectors and probably their 24lb ones if this is going on your 383. you can adjust the pressure through your fuel pressure regulator if it's...
not off the top of my head but i found all the info on here somewhere. if i can find it i will link it up, the site has changed a bit since i was last here so still figuring things out.
I went with that same master cylinder on my 76 and used the tsm manufacturing rear disc kit but upgraded to 4runner calipers in the front and do not use a proportioning valve. no issues braking at high speed and it has worked fine for about 10 years now. and the 4runner calipers fit fine with...
here is the wiring diagram I used years ago and if you search this site you would have found it I believe because that's where I got it. and yes I am back baby, it's been years since I hung out here. I threw a rod out the side of my block a long time ago and now that the kids are out of the...
also check out these guys Spectre Performance - Official Site -- -- look in fuel system accessories and most of there stuff is available at oreily's auto parts. good luck!
this is where i got mine years ago. very happy with it and it has tie down straps in the middle to help hold it to the roll cage. but you have to buy there channel to mount it because it takes a round channel to mount it instead of the standard flat channel ones.

yes its from Australia, i don't remember the details but i think it was a GT hood or something like that. hopefully some one from down under will chime in. you could try the search function because it has been talked about but may have been years ago.
i don't know if you can get parts, i just replaced the whole thing. it would help to know what year your cruiser is because motors have changed over the years. and you might post up in the wanted section. someone will probably have one that you could use to get the parts you need to fix yours.
hey no problem, i didnt mean anything by it just that it had been covered and there were a few threads on it from custom ones to vender ones. glad you found your answers though.
you might try jags that run, thats where i got mine for my tune port set up. they have various models two pulse and four pulse, good luck!
