Engine is at machine shop as we speak. Sleeves are already done and he just has to do the short block assembly. It will be at the Colorado 1/2 in June. Hoping to creep up to 190 in the 1/2. Got my 8-injector manifold back from the coater today and it looks amazing

GOT DAMN that's pretty. Looking forward to seeing this thing back together.

How do you like the Radium rail? I'm swapping to E85 and a set of your 1300 injectors this year, and have been toying with whether or not I need to grab a rail/line combo. Thinking I will do it for peace of mind. How do you feel about the damper they offer, is it necessary in your opinion?

hatrickstu

All of Radium's stuff is phenomenal, one of the best companies in the industry in my opinion. If you are using aftermarket rubber lined lines the damper will be less necessary, but it certainly isn't going to hurt anything. I will be changing out my secondary rail to one of theirs before too long, simply for OCD purposes lol.

The kit they offer does come with a -6 PTFE feed line. I haven't seen anyone run dampers on any other aftermarket rails (AEM/Fullblown/InlinePro) so I've been wondering if it's needed or not.

hatrickstu

I guarantee that the damper isn't on the Radium rails due to it being of lesser design. They have probably tested it and shown it to reduce the pulsations significantly. The other companies probably haven't bothered to test that, or haven't experienced issues after running rubber lined fuel lines.

Well got the engine back in last night! Should be ready to fire up early next week or this weekend!
