Sure. Just have to change a few wire lengths on the harness. Not a biggie. If you've got a stock sized engine, stoke intake parts will be FAR cheaper to source though. And the single throttle body makes tuning easier because you'll still have to synch ITB, just like carbs.

Possibly, but my long term goal is to continue using the system after I build up a bigger motor.
Something that stock runners may not handle (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

Ok.... but stock TB plenum and runners can be had for dirt cheap. Plus it gets you running while you build the big engine.

I'm not worried too much about cheap. I already have carbs on the car and it's my DD.
I'll buy the throttle bodies and the rest of the kit when the money is ready, and I will pull the car off the road and install everything at once. Thanks for the help. |

QUOTE McMarc uses his kits on his own installs and doesn't cater to the DIY guys Not sure where you got that. I've sold three to DIY guys and installed one (plus my own). (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) That's just what I've heard, and that's what I took from this The system I'm installing was engineered and supplied 100% by McMark. My understanding is that he usually provides these systems for motors that he builds, but I talked him into providing one for me Mario, You setup looks very nice and looks to be built to a high standard. But Since I'm being quoted... Mark provided incredible support for me, and I am across the country from him. If every vendor supplied support the way mark does, the world would be a better place. I would purchase anything mark offers with confidence. |

Cool! I do a Microsquirt based plug and play version for the Type 1. For Type 4 a few lengths would need to be changed. That is something I can work out with Aircooledtechguy over at his shop. Then again, you said it yourself. McMarc uses his kits on his own installs and doesn't cater to the DIY guys, I do. It's just another options for the guys that are not local to him and able to just drop their I am glad you have something to offer in this arena. It might be wise not to make comparisons with other people's work on what is fundamentally a venue of genteel ladies and gentlemen with the finest sensibilities. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) I love the pictures. Thanks. -Warren |

I am new hear and just want people to know there are options. |

There seems to be a feeling that some toes are being stepped on here, but I that's not the case at all. Mark is a generalist, does Megasquirt along with a full range of mechanical services. Mechanical repair, restoration, modifications, engine building, fuel injection, carburetors, OEM, aftermarket, etc, etc. Mario is a specialist and does Megasquirt. Period. That's all he does. If you want general mechanical or fuel injection, OEM or aftermarket, call Mark. If you all you want is aftermarket fuel injection, call Mark OR Mario. Or Mark and Mario, if you're that way. No conflict, no either/or, no big deal, no inferences, no limitations. Both have excellent reputations, both are courteous to elderly people and like small children. It's no different than Mark and Jake, Mark and Chris, Mark and Eric, or any other combination. You have a choice, that's all, and that's not a bad thing. For anyone.

Absolutely! Just trying to make sure my offerings are represented. I'm happy to see Mario here and I hope he'll be able to chip in on some of the MegaSquirt threads that pop up.

Great to see we have two guys with great knowledge and product out in the market. Some of us look at stuff like mega squirt as voo doo science. I hope to get with the program and learn how that stuff works.

Another Dual TB kit. This particular one if for a type 1.
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/fbcdn-sphotos-h-a.akamaihd.net-15980-1372231897.1.jpg) On another note, I have been working on a nicer fuel rail for our applications. Decided to draw some up. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net-15980-1372231898.2.jpg) The nice thing about computer design is it's easily modified. That was rev 1. Then I started adding parts and checking fitment. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/fbcdn-sphotos-g-a.akamaihd.net-15980-1372231898.3.jpg) Rev 2 was more parts and starting to look like something! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/fbcdn-sphotos-b-a.akamaihd.net-15980-1372231898.4.jpg) Looked pretty good so I had some proto's made to check them out on some manifolds before I hit up the machine shop. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/fbcdn-sphotos-f-a.akamaihd.net-15980-1372231899.5.jpg) You can see more here if you would like - Fuel Rails Thanks for looking! |

My new project is a Mini Cam Sync for sequential fuel and spark. There isn't a good solution so I'm making one.
Here where my first thoughts (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/sphotos-b-sea.xx.fbcdn.net-15980-1377804745.1.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/sphotos-b-sea.xx.fbcdn.net-15980-1377804747.2.jpg) Gathering parts for the first prototypes. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/fbcdn-sphotos-h-a.akamaihd.net-15980-1377804747.3.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/fbcdn-sphotos-b-a.akamaihd.net-15980-1377804747.4.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/sphotos-b-sea.xx.fbcdn.net-15980-1377804747.5.jpg) I have made some changes since these drawings. Mainly using dual bearings to better support the shaft to keep it straight, added in some retaining clips to hold stuff together instead of relying on everything to press fit and added in the factory oiling instead of using sealed bearings. So here is where I'm at right now. Still need to change a couple little things and then send off files in exchange for parts (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/sphotos-a-sea.xx.fbcdn.net-15980-1377804747.6.jpg) Wish me luck! |

Yeah, quick question Mario: what in the f*** are you thinking? You know these are antique motors, right? No future? This is all way modern tech, they could probably even meet smog with this stuff.
