After it runs a 10 with the manual.

We'll see how it goes first. If I decide I like driving a manual Ill put a TKO in once this box breaks, if not ill fit a powerglide or TH400.

Cage will come after it runs a 10.99 or faster.

A little, its no closer than the 3540 though. I might get the exhaust housing ceramic coated or something.

I just ordered a megasquirt 2 and stimulator from DIYautotune. It will be interesting to see if I can get the BA motor running with it. Ill have to use AU coil packs and an edis module which Ill start looking for soon.

If this works Ill put a BA motor and megasquirt into the Maverick and buy the autronic when it is finally released for the EA.

Sheeesh you'v gone from penthouse to outhouse with ecu's.. But there's PLENTY of back up with MS systems, Yahoo etc... What you realy need to do is work with engineer from ECU company and they'll sort it out... Much like I have done with Haltech, but any ecu company thats close to home... My issues have been [RFI ?] noise in ignition...It upsets other sensors too.....But atleast they work it out at no cost....

Im just trying the megasquirt as an experiment. Once the autronic is released Ill get that for the EA. I want the VCT control that autronic provides.

I plan on doing a falcon engine conversion into my 4wd on straight gas so that is where the megasquirt will ultimately end up.

If the megasquirt works well on the BA motor Ill put a BA motor into the 4wd if not Ill fit an AU motor.

If it can get the EA up and running in the meantime then at least I can drive the car while waiting for the autronic to be released. Ive been told it should be ready this month but Im not holding my breath.

Megasquirt has arrived and has been put together. All went well and it is working as it should with the stimulator and lap top.

It only took 10 hours to put together. :P

I also picked up a cheap Xr6T turbo today. The tow car needs some more grunt.

Actually I think Pete from Rank Rotary told Silencer that it was working in JETXR.

The VCT is controlled with a PWM module on each cam so the wolf V4 could move the cams. It doesnt have 2 cam input sensors though so it could not tell which position the cams are in. Maybe they took the rocker cover off and checked it by sight?
