shayden Posted February 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 I used to use james race engines (engine action) when i worked at city chrysler 6years ago. Hedley is a bit wierd, and they are expensive, but they do good work. Sorry to be blunt.. But don't ʞ©$ɟ around with old 4k shit on a 4age. Just use the original distributor, a decent aftermarket ignition (not megasquirt) and a GRA gas throttle body. That way it will make good power, be easy to tune and will be reliable. this is by far the easiest (and around the same price as the dodgier methods) way to go jus gettin lite work done soo hopefully it wont cost an arm and leg! :glare: gna start doin my crank jus gna smoothen it myself and get them to balance and build it to a short motor.. as for the dizzy and ign. goin to look around for a cheap ign. module, and also why not megasquirt ive heard good things about them... :yes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MRMOPARMAN Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 megasquirts are very low tech compared to even the budget brand ecu's on the market these days. if you decide you want someone else to finish the installation/tune or whatever, you will find it very hard to find people willing to work on a megasquirt for you. so you need to be really commited to it and knoledgable enough to get it done yourself.

Ben-89 Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 I'm going good mate, its a completely different car! Should look great with a coat of paint on her for sure :y: Those flared arches look tough! This would be seriously cool if it had all the interior back in it though, just for the family car look :) I'm in the process of prepping the ke70 as its getting some dents, scratches and a hint of rust removed. So all the rubstrips are off and are being replaced with originals. It looks different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
