FINALLY! A normal, real, human, gearhead! Working on a REAL Engine! Man! I thought I was the minority! OK, so there is officially two of us in the Universe working with these motors. So a couple of questions and or assumptions I am going to make?
1. I assume that this is a late model 8BA? or/and later of the prior with or without the integral bellhousing?
2. Also assumed you have already checked for cracked main webbing? I commonly go through 3-5 blocks before I find one that's good due to the typical overheating issues. I have found a way to actually repair these cracks. I have built two motors so far and beat them to death tore them down did another mag check, still good. So, if you have any bad blocks.... keep them they can be repaired!
3. If you are using the Megasquirt II box. I know for a fact on their forums they have maps for flattys. If you cant find something directly..IE: meaning if you can only find something for a supped up flatty. Pull a map down for a 289 and or 302 stock. This will get you running right off the bat then very little tuning from there. I will dig around I remember one of the guys had this info... Ill post link when I find it.
You will be exptremely happy when you get this completed... Flattys run like a completely different animal once fuel injected... its quite amazing.. Good Luck, keep us posted.
