Default Run out of fuel!

Been doing some mapping last night and today.



Car is a steel 1600, Cosworth racing forged pistons, NMS twin single pass cooler, NMS head, Mfi, MF2. T34.

Got her to 27psi held, and at 6k she running out of fuel! The cossie grey is flat out. I assume thats what it is, could be the fuel pump. Omex is set to 6k, but she so wants to go higher, and so do i! She's at 12:1 at 6k, so really needs to be richer. Time for efi i think. Might put a black injector in

Rick.
