    Anyone doing this conversion? Thinking that the '86/'87 computer controled 3.8 might be a great starting point for this project.

    Needed:

    Reluctor wheel to add the coil pak ignition

    Intake? Fab'd or ????

    Reprogramed computer system

    Turbo & assorted plumbing for a 3.8

    Exaust?????

    Intercooler

    Related FI componets

    Of course a set of Mike's new aluminum heads!!!

    Out put through a 5 speed manual

    Looking for a '69 GS that will get MPG & be very fast


    THOUGHTS?

    Jeramie is building Megasquirt computers and throttleboddies for the 350 and Mark may be building a front mounted throttle body intake for multiport fuel injection to work with either his turbo kit or naturaly aspirated. We are also trying to get a run of cometic head gaskets made to deal witht he boost.

    Its pretty much a sure thing, jeramie has it all figuered out. There are various levels of Megasquirt conmputer and sensor packages he will be offering. At very least we can use a TBI setup even with any intake and once the MPFI specific intake is done then we will have that option as well. Another thing jeramie is working on is a Poston intake to MPFI using mark B custom fuel rails. Stay tuned.

    So is anyone working up the coil on plug tech for the Buick's? Would be really neat to run a distributorless system. Wondering if the Chevy LS system could be adapted to this project. Seems to be plenty of donors in the yard now (trucks since '99) and a computer could be reprogramed around the Buick timing events (V8 to V8).

    Thanks,

    Jim
