    Do you own a BMF? Status update please!

    There are many BMF intakes in the hands of many folks now, I and I'm sure others are eager to see them hit the track/road, especially given the drool-worthy builds they are associated with!!!! Would like to hear some updates on how your builds are going and when you think you might start 'er up!

    Re: Do you own a BMF? Status update please!

    working on figuring out dimensions so I can cut down the injector holes some and then make fuel rail mounts or spacers for the ones sent. Ordered a clutch from FWDP which is the last piece of the puzzle to get this build completed. Have all the parts, need to finish the intake mods, put it together and in the car, then will need some exhaust work done.

    Mine is on the shelf awaiting the motor. According to Rob (Shadow) it should be up and running by June.

    Mocking up my engine. Looks like the stock 86 L-body bracket and P/S pump will not fit, hits end of the intake, need 1/2 inch easy. Anyone tried the Z/F bracket and pump?

    Z/F is the only pump you can use with BMF.

    Asa, finally got a build thread going with some pics.

    Need to get back to modifying the intake, with the heat around here this summer I didn't do much car stuff. It's car working season now where the high is in the mid 70's and it's cool at night. Gotta get it going before the snow comes.

    Re: Do you own a BMF? Status update please!

    Mine sits, bolted to a mock-up head casting, under the GLHS that's on jack stands in the shop.
    I tried to store it where I wouldn't have to look at it everyday and cry because of the time it'll take to actually use it.

    But, this I assure you Asa;
    When it is finally in and working, I'll have specs and logs and any measurables to post here and the other forum.

    Machine shop work should start on the short block within a month!

    I hope my issue is a one off one but everybody should check their manifold to make sure all holes line up.

    Re: Do you own a BMF? Status update please!

    I just got my car started for the first time in 2 years tonight! I also installed a f.a.s.t xfi ecu so I have alot of tuning to do but I'll let you know how the bmf performs asap. My question to you asa is, have you come up with any solution to using a 2 piece fuel rail on the bmf? I have a fwd fuel rail for a 2 piece that I can't use. No big deal either way I'd just prefer to use the aftermarket fuel rail vs stock 1 piece

    Re: Do you own a BMF? Status update please!

    I have tons of great pics! I just can't post them. I don't know how. Nothing works or makes sense. I wish I could. But in short it's a 87 sc with Steve m head, aluminum rod je piston 2.5. Bmf, tu header, 3076r turbo, 3.50 fd 568, and of corse the fast xfi ecu. The wireing was very challenging but it's done. Just gotta work the bugs out.
