    How does one cable translate to a H pattern box? This makes no sense.

    What do you mean? I asked Quaife to send me a lever for my new box and this is what they’ve sent.

    Is your new box sequential because if not that lever wont work...
    If Carlsberg did Motor clubs, then IDMC would probably be the best motor club in the world.

    Few things happened today, went over to see Ben @ Hanger 30 and do a bit of mock up to make sure we’re gonna be happy with the sequential lever position.







    We moved the lever a little further forward after the pictures as it felt better coming off the wheel and onto the lever.

    Also got some mock up for the wiring done, which I was most happy about





    Not a bad view from behind the wheel

    Also, we’ve been trying to work out a way of sorting the fuel tank and pump. I got hold of a brand new (eBay) tank but it was for a carb engine and doesn’t have the built in swirl/collector pot.

    No problem, got hold of an injection tank, cut it open and relieved it off the swirl pot, level sensor/intake pipe and the roll over valve.

    Pump feeds from here, level sensor plug, barb will be removed and replaced with a weld on AN-8 fitting.



    Intake down into the swirl pot



    Close up of the swirl pot.



    So fuel from the tank fills the pot via the little filter arrowed yellow.
    It’s then drawn up the intake Green and into the pump, to the engine, the return comes back along the red hose and into the swirl pot where it creates a venturi that helps keep the intake surrounded by fuel.
    The 2 blue pipes are both breathers, one is the tank breather the other is the breather to the filler neck
