That's cool, I always wanted to build an engine test stand, I think I've been over thinking it...

no story, other than it was an engine being sold VERY locally to me, so i grabbed it.

yanked the FI off and dropped a single carb on. then realized carb needed to be rebuilt : )

bought it with the thoughts of doing a mcmark style turbo to it but i don't have the funding for this enhancement : (

most of the 1.8 FI for sale in classifieds.

I've had that L-Jet on a few motors, 1.8s and 2.0s and I really liked the system and have considered going back to it on the stock 1.7 motor I am picking up that has no FI

The broken 2.0 bus motor in my 914 has megasquirt, but I am not sure if I want to deal with it or not.
