Hello, I have a 1978 280z engine that I'm putting in a 1974 260z. I'm adding megasquirt for EFI and ignition control. I want to control the stock VR dizzy with megasquirt. Do i need to lock the dizzy mechanical advance and if I do then whats the best way to lock the dizzy. thanks

Hi BLOZ UP, great tool. I'm a newbie so its great to see data on different builds so again keep up the great work! frod

can you send me a link to your MS3 install

so how do you wire up an MSD to Megasquirt?

Does anyone know if MSD-6btm will trigger a Megasquirt from the tach output to tach input of megasquirt?

Hey I hear you brother. I'm going thru the same I have a 260z with a l28et on the stand waiting to do the swap. I totally understand what people are saying here of reading, reading and when you are done that start reading again. I wish that between all the suppose call "experts" here will put a complete startup guide to do a basic l28et conversion with megasquirt with pictures and basic tunning files so that way all of the rest of us newbies won't be asking the same questions over and over just my 2cents...

I new to Megasquirt and I have my Datsun 280z running already with MSD. I just want to first switch the fuel portion until I get more knowledge and experience tunning.How do you switch to fuel only? This is what confuse me from the Megasquirt info page http://www.megamanual.com/ms2/msd6a.htm The document say not to connect the tach signal to pin #24 on MegaSquirt controller. Which is the correct method? Wiring the MSD 6A Module*** With a MSD modules, the ignition module wires you need to know about are: tach signal is a yellow wire (do not use this to feed to pin #24 on MegaSquirt® EFI Controller, it is for a tachometer only), advance control signal is a white wire, ground is a heavy black wire, power is a heavy red wire, switched 12 volts is a thin red wire, the coil positive (+) wire is orange, the coil negative (-) wire is thin black, the unused VR signal wires are green and violet.

can you run the output tach of the MSD 6btm or Crane Hi-6 box to the input tach of the megasquirt 2 to let your MSD or Crane control the spark and let megasquirt just control the EFI. Does that actually works?

hey can you run the output tach of the MSD 6btm box to the input tach of the megasquirt to let your MSD control the spark and the megasquirt just control the EFI. Does that actually works?

Hi FlatBlack Z, Im a newbie but i'm doing a similar build, I have a 260z and Im putting a 280z engine that I want to turbocharge and megasquirt.
