scott super slot injector
DeSoto:
That is a lot of information there.
I would like to run this with the scott style pump but as far as I can tell they are
next to impossible to get your hands on. I don't think there is a workable substitute.
It took me two years of looking to find this incomplete injector and it wasnt really what could be called reasonably priced because there are not many of these out there to be found.
I would guess if I keep looking I may be able to come up with a old scott pump in a few years maybe. I would call it lucky but not likely.
I think for this reason I believe I want to pursue the hilborn pump route to get this going with parts that can be had easily.
So to do this from what I have gathered I will need the following...
A hilborn style pump (hilborn150)
A fuel shut off (doesn't matter brand)
A barrel valve (Enderle side mounted) scott metering valve on injector body no longer used
A bypass line back to tank
Am I missing anything here?
Do you guys think this is a good plan or should I continue searching for the correct pump?
I am concerned I may never find one.
What would you do to get this working again? Although I know it would make more sense to most racers, I don't want to hear buy a new hilborn set up.
Using a vintage part is the main objective for me.
You guys have been contributing alot to help me understand what options i have to sort through my problem and I believe I understand most of what has been posted here. Many thanks, and keep your thoughts coming.
dreracecar:
Enderle BV will be hard to adapt because of its size and the placement of the spool and fittings. By using the Hilborn BV off the 4 port uprite injector the shaft araingment is very simular and very easy to adapt to
DeSoto:
Thanks for the correction and tip, Dreracecar.
Is this barrel valve something I should contact hilborn and buy new or is this a part that finding
used could work out OK.
dreracecar:
Chances are you will not find a used unit or if you did I would be suspect of its condition.
BV and componants will run you say around $300/$400 and then you will have to make a plate that goes between the injector and blower to mount the BV. then you will have to machine the MV off the front of the Scott to get access to the throttle shaft. You may have to machine a little off the bottom (or raise)of the scoop for linkage clearence.
I have the ability to do this for you if you feel overwelmed or do not have access to the equip, cost is the parts plus time (approx $300 lbr) but you will have workable Scott system. Your other alternative is to find a Scott pump and figure out a crank drive for it.
let me know if I can help
GlennLever:
couldn't the linkage be picked up of the rear of the scoop,
and a enderle square barrel valve
If you made the right bracket, it looks like you could mount the Square valve directly in back of the shaft coming out of the hat and use a simple coupler to attach the two together (sleeve with two Allen bolts).
Crower barrel valve on the rear of a crower hat with linkage
found this picture with scoot scoop but enderle injector (with "K" valve) under it (just a thought)
