(NOt Finished)Just reserving a spot.

Currect goal is to Datalog the tuning of a carburated Ford 289ci engine. (then possibably/probably go EFI with it)
Datalogging: RPM, Intake Air Temp, Coolant Temp, EGO (wideband hopefully),TPS, maybe some others....
Once engine is running I will use the MS to control the spark with a standard points type ignition.
Once that is ironed out I will probably go to some sort of sensor in the Dizzy to get rid of the points, and trigger the ignition, probable a Duraspark type Dizzy, and a MSD box. Not sure yet.
At this point I may leave the Carb on there, all depends on how it runs. This is going to be a Weekend cruse/ Open Track car, so 100% daily driver readyness is not needed.

I will post back as progress moves forward


Kit was ordered 1/6/09

You are going to find SPARK is very easy to setup and use.
Here's my baseline numbers for a 350 Chevy.
Hope it helps you out.

drholl,
Not sure if you attached anything to the post?

Anyway...
1/19/08 Alll input sections have been installed and tested on the stim. I am about 4-5 hours into it so far. I only get an hour or so at a time with my work schedule. At this point if all I am doing is data loging I guess I could stop, but I will finish it up. Who knows... someone may give away some Ford OEM EFI stuff I can adapt ;) Maybe by next weekend I will have the outputs finished.
