2023 USA7s HPDE at NJMP Lightning - CHANGED TO October 14 and 15
Vovchandr replied to Croc's topic in National Events
If you're talking about the angled overhead shot, I don't believe there are any in that year. I think its from around 2017? or even older. It's 4.5 hours for me too, a highlight of the year every year I make it. -

Going to try my best to be there this year -
You won't get a more concise answer from anybody else ^! Croc is one of the few people in the world other than maybe Caterham employees with that much CSR Cat experience.

Out with the old. In with the new. Started doing the headlight move down to lower brackets and already despising the job. With that said the front sway bar has to be unbolted and since my boots were falling apart I already had replacements in stock

Took only about 3 years but now I'm weather resistant! Ordered tonneau in 2020 and between everything else going on was reluctant to be punching holes and making it fit. In the end with the right tools wasn't too bad at all

No idea. That's how it I got it

General Zetec powered Caterhams/7's discussion

They absolutely always must as the math that is used to calculate hp from the tq dictates it as such. -
Surprised to see how easy they seem to roll over

General Zetec powered Caterhams/7's discussion

The car is powered by a Ford Zetec 2.0-liter engine that was built by Hasselgren Engineering in 2012 and is equipped with dry-sump lubrication, a ported cylinder head, Comp Cams XR camshafts, ARP head studs, billet I-beam connecting rods, a direct-injected intake manifold, and a programable Cosworth Pectel ECU 208hp @ 7100 ~175 @ 5252 -

Double checked and found your car. But yeah that printout has been used more than once. Not sure if you printed your own but the sale thread for your car has this dyno sheet without a page number in the top right I keep coming across the same dyno printout being used by multiple sellers.. Here is another one For a more or less stock SVT I'd love to see what you actually put down on a dyno on that SVT -

The 2.0-liter Ford Zetec inline-four was built by Quicksilver RacEngines of Frederick, Maryland, and a dynamometer graph is pictured in the gallery. Modifications include the following: Ford Racing cylinder head Brian Crower piston rods TWM fuel injection Raceline water rail Pectel T2 ECU ~230hp @ 7500 ~ cross point @ 5252??? I think the scale on this graph is quite off.... the lines aren't crossing @ 5252 which is impossible more like 6750 as the cross point -

A 2.0-liter Ford Zetec twin-cam inline-four was built and installed by the seller in 2002 at approximately 13.5k miles. The fuel-injected engine features TWM individual throttle bodies, an ITG air filter, Kent camshafts, and an Electromotive WinTEC II engine-management system. Dynamometer paperwork shows that the car produced 178 horsepower and 138 lb-ft of torque at the wheels in 2002 178hp @ 7100 ~130hp @ 5252 -

I'm going to comb through some dyno sheets that I can see on auction sites and post them here for references Power comes from a Ford Zetec 2.0-liter DOHC inline-four that was reportedly rebuilt in 2019 by Road-N-Race Automotive of Riviera Beach, Florida, with a 2.2L Zetec bottom end and a ported cylinder head. Other modifications are said to include: 85mm JE pistons ACL rod bearings TWM throttle bodies Kent Cams camshafts Oversized valves ARP head studs Fidanza aluminum flywheel Upgraded ECU with a programable MicroSquirt system Replacement coil packs and injectors ~188hp peak @7400rpm ~140hp @ 5252 -
So.... who's the "winner"?

You're just a wealth of knowledge NGK's are on the way. In meantime I'll keep master minding and thinking of more ways to partition/narrow down the issue

Its likely wet and dumping fuel. I run rich, cylinder runs cold and I have an off hard throttle issue where I think cylinder(s) gets washed out for a few seconds and car stumbles. However I swapped injectors over today and the misfire didn't follow. If there is a fuel system issue on a single cylinder I'm not sure where it's coming from. I don't think when the standalone accounts for individual injector firings where one could be set different but could be wrong. My worst fear is swapping the motor and the issue remaining due to it being ECU or accessorie (fuel/ITB) related. If there is some other issue that can cause ombalane between cylinders fuel wise I'm all ears. ITBs were rebuild by the company recently and they redid the FPR. I could try putting old one back? Otherwise I'm getting 40psi on rail.
