I'm hoping it won't be too difficult to get the Megasquirt hooked up. Rewiring the entire car is going to take forever. Quote from: bigbada1;354313Man I have been wanting to do an LSX in my 88TC so bad but just cant seem to pull the trigger. I've been wanting an LS in a fox chassis for years and finally bit the bullet. Physically mounting the engine is extremely simple, it's the efi that's the hard part. Quote Selected

I will be following this thread.Yes, it will be controlled with Megasquirt 3 Extra. I'll be building the harness with parts from diyautotune.com. Quote from: bigbada1;354325Are you going to use those headers or are you going with the Kooks LS in a Fox headers? I'm going turbo so I'll be using these truck manifolds facing forward. I'm going to cut the three bolt s off and convert them to v-bands. These manifolds have been 160mph in the quarter in a 3200 pound turbo car so they can make decent power.Quote from: bigbada1;354326What trans are you going to be using? Sorry for all the questions I'm just excited to see someone doing this in a Bird. I'm going to be running a Powerglide. Quote Selected

88 tbird getting molested Reply #29 – March 01, 2011, 08:09:38 PM The manifolds look ok but how about prolonged use. A lot of turbo manifolds or headers glow on hard pulls. I would thank they would start cracking. Quote Selected
