LT1 Intake on SBC
Posted: Sat Jan 23, 2010 10:14 am
Greetings everybody! Prettymuch ready to make the plunge and buy a kit for the LT1 inake that's going on an old style small block Chevy for my boys and I Porsche 944 project. Now I can Mod the intake for a distributor however going without a distributor sounds appealing..
Megasquirt II is in order as I want IAC to work regardless and I thought I read, (however could be mistaken) that I don't need to run an EDIS module with the latest version of MS II? If I wanted to run individual coils for each spark plug can I and do I need to run an aditional coil driver board?
Also... regarding MS I with MS II daughterboard... will the older generation MS I with daughterboard end up being as good as a new version MS II? Opportunity to pick up unused MS 1 kit at half price... Just have to decide if I should trust the guy re: lost components etc. over $70.00 savings?
This engine will have a new flat tappet camshaft in it and will need to be broken in immediatly upon starting... I am sure running timing at 10 degrees would be fine for the duration however wondering if it would be better to install a carbed induction system for the cam break-in, or if initial start-up and run to 2500-3000 rpm would require to much cranking/intermitant runs?
Thanks for all your help! Now off to read the assembly manual again! Bill
