Hi All -
I did some searching, but nothing came up...
I have two quick (yeah, right...) conversion questions. Does anyone have a step by step for the wiring on a six conversion? Have seen cars both with and without the relay board -not quite sure how it all should go. This will be for a carbed motor. My 2.0 4cyl is carbed and the relay board is still intact.

Also, I want to keep my front mounted oil cooler. I plan on using Rich Johnsons modified stock oil cooler and hopefully (depending on budget restraints) his reproduction GT oil lines. Just not sure what gets hooked to what in terms of inlet and outlet.

Thanks!!!

Wiring for a carbed motor is really simple.
You really NEED one wire...keyed power to the coil.
You have that now in the black/purple wire.

the optional ones are the tach wire (the little black one at the coil)
and the oil pressure sensor.

The way you currently have the motor wired is how you should wire the new motor.
The carbs (If they have an elec choke) could use switch power also..


As far as the oil lines...you need to find the pressure side and the return side for the 911 motor and route them accordingly.
You will want a remote filter to protect your oil cooler...so inline.
you will want a remote, inline thermostat to protect your cooler...so it does not explode with cold oil/high pressure.

Leave the oil cooler on the motor if it has one..
