I'm aware of the reg. that prohibits flight with frosted wings. I'm not aware of the 'polished frost' reg. Now I've got to look it up It does make sense though. The weight component of frost is not the issue, nor is the shape change. Just simply the roughness, like you said. 3.13 is purely about frost. Ice is a different animal. All of the texbooks I have read (FAA endorsed) say the same thing... ice can/does change the shape (and adds weight). It most certainly is not legal to depart with ice on the wing of a GA plane, no matter how smooth.

While I agree with you that AOA is paramount, I'm not sure I catch your drift regarding wing shape. Its generally taught that a very small amount of ice build-up on the leading edge can reduce lift by 30% and increase drag similarly, due to the change in shape. Light frost is to be taken seriously as well as it causes early separation. Admittedly, I have only read bits of this thread so I may be off base with what you're getting at. VG's aren't part of the curriculum, but I will go so far as to say that the purpose of VG's, as I understand it, are to 'delay' separation. I need to look into this further.

Jon, Found a diagram of the angle of attacks' roll in speeding up the air over the top side of an inverted wing... Go here and look at the second diagram.... http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/fluids/airfoil.html

Jon, The missing piece is in the angle of attack... fly the plane inverted and the required angle of attack makes the air's path around the 'top' of the wing longer, just like when upright.

You've been PM'd

Another, more recent, shot...

Now that's a KILL.

This 2+2 belongs to a customer of mine... Clint Barnts. It will soon be wearing a scratchbuilt intake and Wolf EFI system. P.S. Pay no attention to the obviously fast, rice'd Celebrity in the backround . . .

To my knowledge, HPtuner is not applicable to early L-Jet EFI. Please correct me if I'm mistaken!

Pretty much. Significantly more sensitive then OEM and, it seems, most aftermarket EMS's

Agreed, 711's are pretty damn decent for the $$$... but they suck in the wet.

True... especially on an L24 due to the restriction of the AFM being more significant on less displacement. BUT, have you ever installed/tuned MS? I'm guessing no. While it can/does work, it requires more diligence than other systems. FIX IT.

Amen.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry...

I'm curious... is English your first language?

If you continue to write as though you are 6, then you should expect to be treated as though you are 6.

Yes, it is possible to use 280 efi on an L24. Its not ideal though. There are many factors to consider, but the biggest issue is probably that the torque curve of the L24 is higher up the RPM range. It will definitely take a significant amount of fiddling. Depending on your budget, you may be better off with a stand alone system.

This probably won't help much but... The VG30DETT has been successfully installed in an S30 at least a couple of times. My point? the VQ35, believe it or not, is substantially 'tidier' than the VG30DE.

VR sensor, trigger wheel, EDIS module, coil-packs, and pigtails. PM BRAAP... I think he has an extra system for sale. Just a suggestion... It would be far easier to read your posts with some effort towards capitalization/spelling/punctuation.

2000 Chev. Suburban. All sources I've been able to dig up suggest that they are electrically the same as LS1 coils. Difference being the location of the wires... These have the HT and LT leads opposite each other while the LS1's have them on the same side of the coil.

I think you're barking up the wrong tree... constant flow means having an injector open at all times while modulating fuel pressure. None of the current aftermarket EFI systems that I'm aware of are intended to be used this way... and its about 10 steps backward in complexity and control, in my opinion. A pair of fair sized TB injectors should do the job well with a stand-alone EFI system.

Jon, Or... you could just ship them to me/him and one of us will take care of that for you.

Rob, I would see it as the injectors needing to be 3 times larger... opening for the same duration.

All you need is the butterfly... 'delete' everything else.
