Title: Would anyone be interested? Eaton M90
Post by: SR71TC on July 12, 2007, 03:50:01 PM
Would anyone be interested in a custom Eaton m90 set up for their 5.0? This is what you would get.

1) HO lower with 30 lbs injectors and fuel rail.
2) Custom upper
3) The M90
4) A hand made twin 60mm throttle body with TPS and IAC
5) Bypass valve

I'll have pics up soon, just want to see if there is anyone wanting it before it goes to ebay. By the way, If you were at Carlise last year, some of you have seen it.

I'll answer any of your questions....thanks

Oh man, I was waiting to see that on your TC's motor.  I thought you were tired of going slow?

Was this blower ever running on a engine? Because It looks like it does not have enough support and will problaby have issues with the lower bracket flexing. My 2.3 bracket looked alot stonger and better supported and it still flexed.

It will be just fine...I had it on my engine with no issues, even the pulley aligns with the crank pulley. I didn't use the BV...this is a project that someone else needs to finish. If you are not mechanically incline, this isn't for you. An engineer from work help me "science" it out. You will need to fabricate your own idler pulley and other"stuff". What you see is what you get and it's about 90% done. I even set the TPS..hahaha

4) A hand made twin 60mm throttle body with TPS and IAC
[/FONT][/COLOR]
 
I have a few of questions about this
1) “Twin 60mm”
2x60 =120mm total or 2x30 =60mm total ?
 
2) ”hand made”
Why? I have a twin TB on my 91 351 Windsor in my F250 , I’m sure you could have picked one up in a JY. Why did you reinvent the wheel?
 
3) Won’t a EEC have trouble adapting to this?
 
And not just jerking you around with questions, I was pricing Eaton m90's on E-bay, there not that out of line so I may be interested in this unit, but want to know the thought/logic that went into it.

The TB is two 86 mustang TB's that I milled 26.5mm off of each side and epoxied them together. Yes, I could have bought a twin, but I made this one. I wanted to fab as much parts as I could.

My motivation for this...well, Nothing like a blower sticking out your hood and you floor it. MMMMMMM....blower whine!

Why would you think the ECU would have trouble adapting to this? As long as you are running mass air, the ECU doesn't care. you could run a 1200 CFM and it wouldn't care.

By the way, I would highly recommend methanol injection. The blower will create a lot of heat. Heat = detonation. Detonation = broken parts.

Oh, you don't have to cut any wires. I designed this so that all the factory wiring will connect up. There isn't any EGR, so this isn't 50 states compliant...ahahahaha. It will piss off Al Gore.

Question:  Any issues with the throttle hookups?  I.E.  would a custom bracket have to be made to run the throttle cable and TV valve lines?  I cannot tell by the pictures......

Also,  what would fit the throttle body as far as intake tubes?  Seems you would need something rubber with a couple a clams to mount it....Just wondering what size.

You could swap in a stock bracket.....

AS for the size, it's a little over 4" in DIA.

Not that I’m interested but how much are you asking

Ah you’re probably not going to say now that it’s on eBay.

I actually am interested, but I want to see how much more (if any) work is needed to make it work.

Isn't that m90 upside down????
How would you check change the oil and wouldn't the oil resovoir be on the wrong side with not enough gear lube??????

Actually, if you look at the GM cars, and how the M90 is designed to start with, the SC's mount them upside down so they can be intercooled. I cant remember if he used an SC M90 or GM M90.

Dominator: It wouldn't matter if it's upside down or on it's side. To change the oil, simply unbolt it from the upper manifold and fill/change/check. I totally disassembled the blower to check all the clearances and  ware. There were some small nicks on the rotor lobes, but I took care of that. Just to let you all know, I work in the compressor field.

V8 Demon: There isn't a whole lot of work left to do, just little loose ends to tie up. I'm actually still mess'n around with it. Just a side note, you will need to have a big cowl hood or just have it stick out your hood.

well...I haven't put it on ebay yet. Still messi'n with it....finished all the gaskets needed to seal it up and have new coolant for it also. All the posts about the M90 on a V8 bird or cat...I'm surprised I haven't heard from a lot of you...hummm. I guess it isn't a cool thing.
