Title: New Esslinger intake
Post by: turbopinto72 on November 01, 2010, 02:53:39 PM
A Months ago I stoped by Esslinger Engineering and Talked to Dan. As we were yapping I noticed something on the floor, picked it up and my first thought was, how can I put this in my pocket  ;D

Yes, this is a 2.3-2.5-2.8 etc Aluminum head deal.
Yes, this has been on a few of Dan Motors and does quite well.

BTW, Dan has now got USAC to approve their EFI Midget motor for use in competition.

oh man that looks nice....

too bad i dont have much experience with changing a car from carb to fuel injected...
all i know is one must obviously change the intake, and get a more powerful fuel pump to create the pressure needed to operate the injectors... wait... then whats EFI!? ugh... my brain hurts

cant brain today... i have the dumb
