Cool Cans?

jmdavison · 11-29-2008, 07:25 PM

Ran one back in the old days when fuel had to run thru the stock pump as said previously, but didn't see much diff after going to elec pumps mtd in back. Tried icing manifold in SS car and that works better, the only problem was keeping the intake charge temp constant. The only time I do it now is in a heads up race when everything is on kill. I found consistancy suffers if you try and do it all the time, because of temp differences ie: air, track, underhood etc. My 2 cents, Good Luck

I do use and insulating material around the fuel lines under the hood to protect from heat.

Here are the pics of the -8 Smax Cool Can. All Billett, nice welds, fit and finish is good, could easliy be polished to a mirror shine

Now that is what a cool can should look like! I am not the least bit impressed with the moroso super cool can after taking mine apart. I'm sorry but it does show a weak link in the sealing dept. as mine filled the bucket with fuel and you can plainly see why after dismantling and I really question the fuel flow capabilities. Anyone else had theirs apart? Moroso does sell new gaskets but not that readily available. Part no.65125160 for the gasket.

that is a nice cool can.

That's a "cool" can. Would you post dimensions of it? I'd like to know height and diameter. Would the -10 can be likewise or a bit larger/taller? Thanks.

I already shipped it to a customer, but to give you an idea a coke can fits perfectly inside. The -10 will be taller, aparently it will hold a Foster's Beer can

I had wondered if once the sizing was correct to flow adequately anyone ever checked cold fuel with rich jet and lean jet versus warm fuel with rich jet . lean jet to see if it is volume or temperature we are changing with the cool can that helps. My cool can limited flow so much I deserted it and ran faster because flow picked up.(prehistoric cool can with small lines)
