Buzzard Hat Question

I'm Running A Buzzard Hat On A 14/71 Hihelix Blower How Many Hat Nozzles Shouls I Be Running? I Have Seen People With 8 On Each Side And I Have Seen Less So Is There A Rule Of Thumb Or Just Guess? Thanks Jamie

 

take your fuel system and pump, and send it to randy anderson,

 

I'm Going To Have The Whole System Flowed What I'm Trying To Find Out Is The Number Of Nozzles To Run In The Hat I Know You Can Flow The Same Amount Of Fuel Thur Fewer Nozzles Say Like 4 In Each Side, Is It Better To Run Smaller Jets And Run Say 5 Or 6 In Each Side To Spread The Fuel Out Over The Rotors To Help Seal Them Or Does It Really Matter As Long As The Fuel Is There I'm Just Trying To Find Out Why Some Teams Run So Many Hat Nozzles, I'm Running Hat And Port Nozzles I Have Seen Guys That Run 8 Hat Nozzles And The Port Nozzles Just Want To Know Which Is The Better Way To Go And Why Thanks Jamie

 

The bigger the nozzel the less chance it has to clog up,the more you run through the hat, the cooler the blower runs, the less it heats up the air, the more actual boost you will get, the trick is to run the most through the hat, and just enought in the port nozzels to keep the cyl temp. even. this is of course with a roots blower, a screw is altogether differant. keep in mind that the port nozzels are affected by the blower boost and if they are to small the boost will restrict it`s flow, thats way i recomend Randy Anderson, he flow`s his systems in actual run conditions, right through a spinning blower,

Jamie There Tends To Be A Lot Of Ways To Skin The Cat I've Seen 4 In The Hat 4 In The Blower 6 In The Hat Two In The Blower 8 In The Hat Two In The Blower. Bottom Line Just Try To Get Fuel Nozzle Area To Add Up And Shoot For Fuel Pressure In The System I Agree With Eli The Smaller Nozzles Could Possibly Clog Up Easier Making The Little Bit Bigger Nozzles Easier To Work With.
