Derek Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 One thing to consider is to hire a tuner to dial it all in. I had Jeff Linfert setup and tune my DOHC with ITBs and he did it all via email. Spending a little money up front getting things setup by a pro and then learning how to tweak may save you some frustration and get you on the road a lot quicker. I would find one in your area if you want to do dyno tuning as well. Derek Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madkaw Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 Yes , the Maxima head has the bigger 35mm exhaust valve , so probably need to notch bore slightly. Just throw whatever Felpro calls for for that year - CR shouldn’t be an issue . If you could afford to throw the bigger 44mm intake valves in then I would do that also. I just suggested this head because it is notched for injectors and you can bolt any stock EFI intake to it . Besides the fact it has the ideal chamber . I’m running Audi 1.8 26lb injectors myself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
munters Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 I wonder why nobody tries the jenvey Heritage ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are what? 1600 euros for set of 3? And you get injectors, fuel rail, and TPS. Still need a DCOE manifold to bolt it to, throttle linkage, an ECU, and all the associated sensors. On the other hand, the triumph throttle body setup gets you the same thing for $200 used tops. Still need a manifold,throttle linkage, an ecu, and associated sensors. I love the look of the jenvey, just can't justify the cost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmehdikh Posted December 25, 2017 Author Share Posted December 25, 2017 To swap to the 82-83 L28ET distributor (for cam position / crank position sensors) into an L26, do I just need the distributor, and the drive shaft? Or do I also need to swap my oil pump? Or will it work with my L26 oil pump with the new shaft? The three parts I'm looking at:ShaftDistributorGaskets Do I need this oil pump as well?Oil pump Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madkaw Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 So you do have a MS ECU ? There are other options for ignition . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

softopz Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 You need the shaft and distributor yes. Oil pump not needed however the turbo automatics are rated higher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, a local friend is giving me his MS3 with 3x expansion board. I also got in touch with softopz regarding a harness. What were your ideas for ignition?

madkaw Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Just saying there’s other options to spend money on besides an old zxt dizzy and shaft. I think Hoke performance sells a trigger wheel set up . My thread shows using a Hall gear sensor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zbloke Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 An alternative to a ZXT distributor is this twin Hall sensor distributor from EFI Hardware https://www.efihardware.com/products/1752/distributor-full-sequential-for-Nissan-L-series-6-cyl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmehdikh Posted December 29, 2017 Author Share Posted December 29, 2017 Since a lot of my questions have strayed from the general megasquirt / EFI topic I started a build thread over HERE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
