    EFI & ignition for V8

    Hi

    Just building a new race car engine using the E300CU - 3.6 litre V8 with flywheel, carbs removed for horizontal crank installation. Anybody got any decent EFI kits and/or ignition systems available? Can arrange collection. Heres my current powerhead.

    I have the MS3Pro with the 8-channel EGT module... one of the cool things is that it knows (by crank position) which cylinder is "knocking" and can retard the timing and/or add fuel to only those cylinders.

    Now I just have to build the motor I bought it for.

    Yes. Mercury has knock sensors on stock motors... the MegaSquirt just makes better use of them.
