:beer: :cool: thanks a lot for posting that video Econoline! With so many of the old carb's being worn out after all these years this looks like it's a really great EFI system to take their place on a stock or mild motor build. :thumbup: :nod:
 
wish they said which motor...
2 things I noticed... pretty rare - a 4dor van? & didn;t they use a wrong wire? That pink has the (not "fusable link", sorry the ele in a car is my 'unknown') is it a 'resestor' wire? Wouldn't that 'power change' B lousy for this purpose?

Thanks Seth, very interesting. U still gettin ready for this mod?

(BTW: I'm lookin @ the odd ball 1st gen chevy van ['64/6] 90 inch WB) :twisted:
 
They only came with 240's and solid lifter 170's in 65. By the sound of that engine it may have been swapped to a 200 at some point b/c I can't really hear that classic sewing machine solid lifter tapping noise. But they didn't really show it running with the "hood" up. I think these 1100's are a great option for 144's, 170's and bone stock 200's. I don't think they can provide enough air or fuel for a hopped up 200 or 250.

Yeah, that's a rare van. They're referred to as "no-door"s. They should have run a wire off the "run on the ignition switch to a relay that throws power directly from the battery under the seat imo. They may have still been at the 12v before that junction, I don't know. It worked.

Yeah, seemed happy (after that expense I'm gunna B happy w/anything). O2, tune screen, 4 wires, ecm...
Still only an 1100 1v. Back to ground zero but 21st century-ized (adaptable, better run, lower MPGs, etc).
Mega Squirt now running 2nd? Isn't there a 3rd choice (fit tec)? The sniper gets my vote for "hide-ability" !
May B cost too? Instal ease? Thousands of applications = no 1 is an 'early adopter' now (mega squirt seems a decade old).

Thnx again (here's a few 90 inch WB eye candy)

1/2 way dwn page. (May B its just my '68 in '71 that is ruling my eyes but I like the look of the 1st gen earlier model '64/6)
