Check Your Eccentric Cone!

Re:Check Your Eccentric Cone!
I still haven't had a chance to get the number or dimensions from my cone.<br><br>I have been thinking about the radiused eccentric, though, and I was wondering if I could get Smoky to elaborate a little more on why he chose to increase the fuel more quickly with respect to boost at lower manifold pressures. Unless the idea is that you can choose wich portion of the curve you are using? So that with the same pin you could have either a very steep slope or flatter slope? But I am not sure that there is room to adjust the eccentric that much -- or do I not get it?<br><br>I am curious for an update on that modification, though.<br><br>Thanks,<br><br>Alec

Re:Check Your Eccentric Cone!
Alec,
The newest design will look similar to the old in that there will only be one setting. The cut needs to be deep enough to allow for full guide pin travel. If two settings were made there wouldn’t be enough material to attach the "cone" to the shaft. What I meant when I sad "tunable" is that it can be adjusted to fit a variety of personal preferences using the star wheel and smoke screw. It won't be a racing, or a super econo design. But rather a good compromise between the two. There are actually three parts to the profile. The first is a fairly large radius, next is a smaller radius, and the last portion is a liner cut. It is all blended together to form a seamless path that looks like a constant radius. I will give another update once it it finished and tested.

Any of you guys running the non intercooled trucks care to take a peak at your eccentric and tell me what you find? Im curious to see how many different eccentric versions are out there.<br>[/quote] checked mine today it is a #56
