BLKMGK Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 Okay, I'm going to try and get my butt moving to get this car back on the road. My original plans had always been to use the carb for testing and shaking out bugs and then goto EFI. That was more than a year or so ago and I'm finally going to CVs which shoudl be one of the last driveline bugs. So, plans are to mount the SX pump and filter in the garage (we'll see how loud it is), purchase an AEM 1010 ECU with a Honda connector, build or buy an engine harness, adapt the harness, mount up a Victor Jr. drilled for EFI, slap a throttlebody on it, and probably run 8 LSI coils once I figure out where to mount them. For triggering I think I'll go with the trigger from Electromotive that replaces the distributor - it'll be VERY clean I think. Not sure how long this will take me. Suspension must be done and tested first then an intake drilled and setup. The rest will be pretty easy IMO as EFI is really not that hard to do and the AEM will cost me under a grand with connector. Oh yeah, dual channel W/B too, I'm getting one for my Mustang with ECU and will probably swap it back and forth Yeah, I'm a little excited about finally getting moving on this sucker! 8) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavyZ Posted July 22, 2003 Share Posted July 22, 2003 You don't post enough on this board! Seriously, it's good to see you back at it again and getting serious. Only thing is, even though I have been a member here for a long time, I cannot remember the specs on your motor! lol 383? LT1? Blasted memory... Scottie told me you knew a bit about LT1 engines. I may have to pick your brain in a PM or email sometime soon--hope you don't mind. Davy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLKMGK Posted July 22, 2003 Author Share Posted July 22, 2003 383 SBC, forged guts, Aluminum Edelbrock Performer Heads, Victor Jr, carbed for now, flat tappet cam. T56 trans but it needs a synchro or two to shift perfectly Been spending a TON of time learning the AEM on my Supra and want one on my Z when it's on the road again. Really want to drive it to work! Need to figure out where the oil drained out ofmy rear diff too - hope it's not a seal (sigh). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SleeperZ Posted July 22, 2003 Share Posted July 22, 2003 Sounds great! I'm looking forward to hearing how it runs without the metered fuel leak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLKMGK Posted July 22, 2003 Author Share Posted July 22, 2003 Kind of pondering intakes, gettng the Victor converted may still turn out not to happen. The StealthRam looks VERY good but costly - with a cowl hood it might fit. I need to measure but I'm not sure I want to spend that kind of money on the intake. We'll see... P.S. Made 300RWHP on primaries only with the carb, secondaries seem to be hosed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
