    Squashy got a reaction from DANK_AS_gay in We Hooked This up to a PC   
    That was awesome! Here is a link to the Holley Fuel pumps I was mentioning on YT. They flow up to 323GPH at 8psi & 13.8v thru a -10an line
    VR1 Data sheet
    VR2 Data sheet
     
    Holley Brushless Fuel pumps
     
    By the way, I love that Alex has a dislike for the Adjustable nut rounders! (like myself) The video got my like for that part it's self!!
     
    If you do this and after it is all said and done, you could send the pumps down to me and I can use them on my project vehicle! LoL

    Cooler without the fan works great when not under load:
    Idle
    GPU core: 27
    Mem core: 36
    Vram core: 31
    Vram #1: 33
    Vram #2: 30
    Hotspot: 27
     
    After one Time Spy run w/ Demo
    GPU core: 84
    Mem core: 108
    Vram core: 94
    Vram #1: 83
    Vram #2: 60
    Hotspot: 112
     
    Been watching YT and the temps have stayed close to idle temperatures. So,,, the cooler is working good (no gpu fan's) for basic operations. My picture skills are lacking but you get a visual.

    Well, my mechanical vacuum gauge isn't sensitive enough and I believe I have found the best I can get with the current setup. The new fans are quieter than the Phanteks and move more air. I haven't measured the vents to come up with a cfm. I did see a increase in MPH at the intakes from 2.4mph to approx 3.9mph.
     
    Doing a stress test now just to see if I can stop the heat gain I see but I doubt it.
     
    FYI room conditions before turning on the pc:
    Temp 73.6 degrees (23.1c)
    Humidity 0.2 rh uncal
    Dewpoint -58
    Wet bulb 45.1
    Baro 29.46
    Density Altitude 1445 
     
    The whole room starts to heat after a while last temp I took it was 77degrees (24.4c). This was why I thought of turning a closet into a "server room" of sorts if I ever found a need to run a higher powered system.
     
    All in all the system is running 100% better and far more stable.

    I wanted to go ahead and say thank you for all the help. I got frustrated with the machine, I would be in the middle of something and it die.

    This was the first drag car we built. It started life as a 1974 VW Type 4. We built a complete tube chassis, ford 9", 355cu SBC on alky, powerglide Transmission, Ron's Flying Toilet, MSD 6al ignition and full aluminum interior. My brother and I ended up working at the drag strips more than racing the car. (one of two jobs thru college)
     
    Back then we had a friend that let us borrow a JD2 tubing bender and I was in college learning how to run Lathes and mills so if we needed anything made I just had to supply the material.

    This is the throttle pedal I have been working on. I'm switching over to a mechanical linkage for safety reasons.
     
     I'm really not into my old hobbies I use to be. I hope to sale all of this stuff, I don't want my wife to be stuck with this if something happens to me. I keep telling myself to just finish the truck and get some enjoyment out of it but I'm having a hard time getting myself out in the shop. We had to sell my Dailey Driver so until I get this thing running I don't have a vehicle! That's unless my wife is off work.

    I'm new here but have been into vehicles and racing my entire life. Thought I would share some pictures and spec's of my current on going project. I have built a couple of drag cars and engines. I really only know how to build 385 series Fords. I use to run 460ford and 429-460ford forum for the longest.
     
    Current project: 1984 Ford F150, regular cab, 4x4. It came with a inline 6 cylinder and NP435 manual transmission. I am currently performing a engine and transmission swap.
    Engine: light 528cu BBF 680hp680ftlb on 91octane
    Transmission: C6, manual valve body, fully rollerized, transbrake (rated for 1,200hp)
    Transfer case: Billet aluminum quick change
    Gear ratios: 4;30
    Tires: 31x10.5r15
    I built the engine back in 2015 but started working a new job that kept me away from life and now I regret spending the money. My goal right now is to complete the project so I can get a little something out of it. (Its been a pain working on things since I lost one of my eyes!! I hit my head a lot and have zero depth perception. I use to be able to just look at the head of a bolt and know what size wrench or socket I needed. Fabrication is a lot harder as well, I use to be able to hold something with one hand and figure how big a bracket would need to be!! NOT NO MORE!! LoL
     
    I have been working on a throttle pedal bracket for weeks now. I just get so dang frustrated!

    Thanks, I'm gong to try all this.. 've just been to PO'd to think straight. Is it only me,, a thief will make you feel like an idiot and dumb as dirt once you find out they have been stealing from you? I just assume they physically take something rather than steal from me like this. Almost like they are bulling me.
