Default Re: B&B Fusion: First Look

I spoke with Mike at B&B two days ago and he mentioned that he still needed to make time to get a car in the shop for final mock up to prepare the system installation documentation.

I got the impression that was something that might have been delayed due to conflicting priorities, but it seemed to be on his short-term scope. Maybe they will still need your help, Phillip.

He did say they had already shipped a couple units, and I'm very glad Bob will be involved in Steve's install to give us his feedback.

Thanks for the post and pics Bob !

I'm curious also to see the results. I like the way it looks. Simple. Not a bunch of different exhaust pieces from different mfg's. All from just one.

Wonder if they'll sell the electronics separately for those of us that already have the flapper valves installed??

sure looks good with all the pipes polished...I could never keep mine that way if I had purchased them polished though.

Could we get a couple pictures of the vacuum bulb and controls up close, I am curious to see how they suggest hooking up the vacuum.
Pretty sure the key fob just enables and disables the valve system.... so if it is disabled the valve stays closed no matter what. Once it is enabled a drop in manifold vacuum opens the valves - note in the pics they are open in the absence of vacuum. The large vacuum hose that comes back from the engine manifold plugs into the bulb which is connected to the switch.... the hose comes out of the other side of the switch and tees heading to the actuators. Hope that makes sense....
