vk327 Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 @chris r i have a spare 36-1 trigger wheel for 202 balancer i used with my link atom on the vk build @flyingbrick done the cad file and got it cut for me, if you go that route with efi, flick me a message if you wanna know more about the efi stuff on the 202 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I paid 150 which I was happy enough with. I was trawling marketplace and found a really old add and messaged the guy on the off chance he still had it I found a new manifold ex aussie but it was a bit too spenny 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vk327 Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Au 1 falcoon coilpack is the go for a wasted spark setup, along with a bosch triple channel ignitior from a volvo makes an easy setup, nounted my coils on heavy ali angle with the igniter bolted to the bottom using the ali to heat sink, also used a ba falcon VR sensor for the crank pickup, sensor type will depend what ecu you use tho, also check out thesonic injection throttlebody injection stuff for the 9 port 202 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tortron Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 Would a commodore coil pack work, I have one you can have for free. Take the crank angle sensor too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take the crank angle sensor too Commodore ones would work but a pain to wire up as they are designed to fit down on the dfi module base with tabs sticking up on the base for the connections, the au coil has a nice 4pin plug and about $90 new for a bosch one 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For similar money (once accessories are priced up) I can just go for a fitech or holley 2 barrel tbi setup with hand controler etc I might steal some of their ideas though if I go further down that rabbit hole 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris r Posted May 27, 2020 Author Share Posted May 27, 2020 on my running around this morning I priced up a new au coil and the bosch ignition module. Both were too spenny for my tastes. Had a quick look on trademe and found this. thats a bit more in my budget. I was debating if I get a $20 aliexpress module but decided against it I sent @vk327 some $ and i've got a fancy crank trigger on the way. I've had no luck with finding a tbi off a falcon so am thinking about barrying up a injector setup to bolt onto the manifold. Yes ideally the injectors will spray onto a hot valve but I can't tig aluminium etc etc so I'll barry up a tbi setup of some description. one option I'm thinking about is use 3 injectors and aim one down each runner but I'll have a play and see what fits 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris r Posted May 27, 2020 Author Share Posted May 27, 2020 Basically this but with injectors at a angle. It'll be 'fun' figuring out a fuel rail for it that'll work. I could also have them nearly vertical and spray onto the floor of the manifold and it can just mist around carb spec 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vk327 Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 be better to weld or tap in injector bosses above the ports and not have fuel dropout issues that throttlebody injection has, efi hardware in ausie do a bunch of different style bosses and also individual injector rail fittings (PS the crank trigger will be on its way as soon as the courier actually picks it up) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If i end up going port injection I'll realistically have to go to a different manifold style all together as throttle bodies will clash with fuel rails etc etc. Yes fuel drop out is bad, how much worse will it be conpsred a carb though? It's more of a learning exercise at the end of the day. If the fuel side of things doesn't work out I can just have waay over complicated fancy programmable ignition Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bronze Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 I laser cut a few gaskets for the base of an adm. Shout out if you need one. Also a spare spacer or two but dunno how they'll work to the adapter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be fine as I am planning to he only using weber pattern Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris r Posted June 13, 2020 Author Share Posted June 13, 2020 So the interwebs told me that the falcon tbi module is Weber pattern. I don't know if the ea is different but it is not the same bolt pattern That's the gasket of the 34adm on the base of the TBI unit It doesn't matter that it's different as I'll just make another adaptor plate to suit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr.wylde Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 Love what you've done with the ignition system, I'm in a similar position as my Holden V8 Hei distributor module has started to pack up. What you've done has given me something to think about. Would you be able to show a diagram on how youve wired it in? no pressure! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
