034 EFI

Hi Nate!

Wow, good info.  If this is easier to get running than the stock CIS, then
it might make sense for me to put it in at the same time the long block
goes into the 4kstq project.  My worry is mainly getting it to pass smog,
the visual inspection portion.  I have to both title and register my car,
since it hasn't ran since I bought it.  I couldn't get it changed into my
name due to no smog check due to not running.

I see that the stock intake air temp sensor is not usable.  Where do you
mount the new one?  Can you use the existing location in the
intercooler, if it is being used in the conversion?  And even if you can, is
it the best place to take the reading?

On the fuel rail, it looks like that Force company offers the option of
sending in your manifold to have the injector fittings or hole machined in
the proper location.  It sounds easy enough to do it at home as you did.

Also, just to confirm.  The fuel rail you ended up using came from
"Fodge Engineering", and the link you provide for similar units is "Force
Fuel Injection", and these are not related, right?  Basically Dan Fodge
doesn't have a website, so you're providing linkage to similar products?

And lastly, the reason why there's no cam trigger setup for the efi is
because on the 90's you can use the stock hall sender for this.  On
5kcstq or 200tq flywheel and CIS, you can't do this and have to put your
own trigger on, right?

So, to put this system in my '85 4ksq, I'll have to include the MC-1
ignition system from the 5kt to ensure that its knock sensing and such
capabilities are included.  Another way to go would be to just use the
stock 4ksq ignition system?  I suppose if I'm using a 200tq flywheel,
then I'd have to swap over anyways, right?

Thanks,

Ken
