proposed setup advice.


I've got a 2.9 v6 here that I wan't to run, it has an autobox.
My plan is this

Take off the fuel injection as I do not have the ecu and the loom appears to be damaged. (sell the plenum, injectors etc)
get my mate Andy to fabricate an inlet manifold, to hold carb/s possibly weber 38dgas
attach a timing wheel to the crank pulley
point a vr sensor at it
fit a Throttle position sensor
install a megajolt ecu to run the ford EDIS system
wire up the Megajolt , play around with the software to set the ignition timing using the base map

bosh, rumble rumble , GO! GO! GO!

or not ?

what do you think, advice , concerns, views anything ?

just trying to cover all bases, been reading lots of stuff about it but I'm bound to have missed something


cheers

Martin

There are a couple of Ford breakers in Essex, there is one at Tendering (between Manningtree & Harwich) and one not far from Tiptree. My unlce uses both for his Fiesta and says that they are really helpful. smile

Yes please! I could do with either a loom and ecu for a BOA 2.9 v6
or a set of carbs for any 3.0 V6 or similar size, the inlet manifold will be easy for my mate to fabricate as part of the inlet is part of the block.

confusedIf you know what I meanidea
