    Been looking for a while

    I am once again starting a straight-up learning curve. Several years ago I installed a Honda D16Y8 into an Austin Seven Mini, I needed to modify the ECM to function. I used Moates stuff, the little four wheel rocket is better than a pace maker. Old people get pace makers, I make old cars fast. I am 76, SO that don't mean I am dead.
    My latest build is a 1966 MGB Roadster, I have installed a 1994 Camaro 3.4 V6, 1998 5 speed gearbox, 1998 narrowed diff. with limited slip. I used TunerCats to reflash the Memcal. Since June 2014 we have done 8000 miles, so I guess it works OK, but I won't more, so I am looking into looking at what is going on with the ECM. Dang I have written a book.
    Regards

    Welcome. As an owner of a 75 MGB, I have been thinking about the same swap you did. I may have some questions later on. Got any pictures of the B?

    No rules broken. The link you posted was appropriate and on topic.

    Randy79, thanks, where? ask away, chromes are harder than rubber.

    Dave W, thanks for the welcome. I have tried to follow many of your explanations, I will keep trying. Have a cable I used from TunerCats to reflash my ECM 16184737, having trouble getting TunerPro-RT to accept. Have followed EagleMark's directions to no good results, something I must not be doing correct.

    Steveo, Yep, as an past educator myself I have now adopted a new rule. I feel it is a need to be able to spell any word in the American language at least two ways and still get the meaning across. I now take a brake from normal life and not act my age.

    Regards to all and thanks again.

    Charles, I saw it on Britishv8.org site, been looking at the V6 swaps on there since I got my car. Lots of good (and bad) ideas on there.
