Scott 97 fuel injectors .....

Just wondering if anyone on here might have some more pics and or info (lit) of these injectors ?? ..... they are like the early verson of the scott 97 injector that are bolted to a 97 base ......these are the last generation of the 97 injector ...............

 

those are pretty darn cool. never seen any myself, but would love to know about them from the ones that do. i'm sure there are some here. bttt

 

anyone ?

 

well now... that is interesting! My guess would be alky for a sprint car. Looks like the principal could be adapted to just about any 'ol base plate, given the talent.
Keepin' it on the front page so someone may chime in with info.

 

I saw a couple at a swap meet in Georgia last year. The guy that had them has a carb rebuilding shop, sorry can't remember where. He told me that they were used as end carbs in a three carb set up. First time I ever heard of them much less seen them. If I run across his card i'll re post.

 

Wow! Neat! I' recall seeing various style SCOTT injectors from
''back in the day', but I've never seen or heard of this particular
type/style before. Very very cool! vintage 'speed' stuff for sure!
Hopefully somebody here will know more about these gems and
post some information on them because Now that we've seen
a pic and you've whetted our appe***e.....inquiring minds *NEED*
to know more!

Fellow in Eugene OR, has, or at least had a 3X2 with a center 97 and the early Scotts for dumpers. Wanted $1500, if I remember correctly... I guess I didn't help though, did I?

 

anyone with pics or info even on the early injectors ?????? how about even pics of them being ran on there cars .......even old race pics , thanks Steve

 

Here's a couple pics of mine..Runs on av gas.

 

Those pics are great .. but .. thats hilborn .......I am looking for stuff running with Scott injection on it .

 

Oops.

 

I think I remember an article in HOT ROD on these from the mid fifties or so. It will be awhile, but let me see if I can dig it up. The one thing I know about Scott products was that they made an aftermarket top for Stromberg 97s that had a neat shape to them with no choke tower. I'll see what I can do for the article.

 

I heard in the small mags, rod and custom 1960 there some articals on scott stuff ..... I found 2 write ups so far 1958 rod and custom ....

 

Check How to Build and Race Hot Rods 1959

 

Thanks little wing , I went and got it , nice write up .... but still need more ..... anyone else might know where there is more articals or info ?????? or even if someone has some old pics of scott set ups on engines .....

 

Have searched this board?

Scott injectors have been discussed a few times. Even seen them forsale in the cl***ifieds on here as well.

 

Yes they have been discussed on here but in very little detail ..... I am trying to find out as much as we can and see if someone might have some good pics stashed away we can all look at and some more history and use ..... as for Scott parts being sold on here ... few and far between , because I have been watching too ....... thanks Steve

 

Any one else with some usefull information or pics ???? ..... Steve

Thanks again Little wing for the great info ..............

 

Steve, contact rustywagoners here on the board. He knows a lot about Scott injection systems.

Here is a reply from Mel's wife.

"
Those injectors were the very first ones Mel made--he made the pattern for them. Ron Hess, his partner, a cabinet maker made the pattern for the subsequent ones."

 

Here are some pic I took at the NHRA museum

 

Here are some pics I took in New Zealand but I don't have any info to go with them....

 

I wonder if there is a video of these actually running on a car.
