Found is relay board yesterday, and I think its a /6 type, because it has less relays? If I remember correctly, the /4 has 4 spots for relays?

You are correct Bugle Boy ....

/6 relay board has 14 pin main body harness connector and 14 pin engine harness connector. Less relays, somewhat different layout, etc

/4 relay board has 14 pin main body harness connector and 12 pin engine harness connector. More relays, etc ......

Just use the /4 on your car and match function for the wires on the engine harness. Unless ..........

Slits: For my 2,7 would it be better to use the /6 relay board or the /4. I have yet to really understand wiring, so I'm clueless.

You hit the nail on the head Mark, that's what I've been saying! At least he is finally decided on an engine, the 2.2S w/ Carbs. That only took about a year (IMG:style_emoticons/default/yellowsleep[1].gif) You wouldn't believe how many times he went from a 3.6, to a 3.2 w Carbs, then a 3.2 w/ direct ignition or PMOs. He even threw out the idea of a 3.0 SC Engine w/ Zeniths like I was gonna do. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chair.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/screwy.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ar15.gif)


Ive been trying to get him on it, but he is too busy in his Ferrari world. I must say, it's pretty cool though. He bought a 360 Challenge Stradale and is converting all the brakes, suspension, interior into his 360 Spyder.

Ha ... yonug farts and old UPS pilots .... what a combo

The only benefit to the /6 relay board would be the raw fuel injection into the carbs for cold startup .... nice fire if it backfires. You would need the original air cleaner with the spray tubes and run it. You would also need to acquire the proper relays ... I have a pic somewhere of it.

Other than the above, the function would be the same to me. I used the /4 with the /4 engine harness and, following a wiring diagram, matched function for the wires needed. I even used the fuel pump relay to fire the fuel pump.

Wanna spend more money then use the /6 and acquire a /6 engine harness.

Others do away with the relay board entirely ... there are threads on this ... and eventually the "real" experts will chime in****


**** that doesn't include you Elleyot ............

Oh, the "unless" is if you want to join the pinky lifting, gold chain, whine and cheese crowd.

It looks like either one will cook your battery if you use the old OEM voltage regulator. Whatever.
