So the engine is rebuilt, installed in the car, goodies installed: light fly, ACT stage 1 clutch, KDB 4-2-1 tri "Y" header, Megasquirt'n'Spark, Ford EDIS, Ford Coilpack, ford 36-1 crank trigger wheel, B18C plug wires, TRD .5mm headgasket, custom waterline relocation kit, etc etc... Now to the wiring. Dropping in the engine is the EASY part.
Let me start by saying Megasquirt wiring is EXTREMELY easy compared to the stock ECU... so don't underestimate the headache.      Enjoy... This post has been edited by Kwanza26: Jun 7, 2005 - 10:26 PM -------------------- "It's ok to be naked girl... I'm an artist!"

I apologize for these questions, but I have not been following this swap. What engine is that out of, and what are you estimated specs? Also, please explain the EDIS. And a HUGE comment on only putting things in the engine bay that need to be in the engine bay. Engine and engine contributes (fuel, exaust, intake, ;ignition). After you are finished, you should balance out the car, more than likely, relocation of the battery will occour.

[right][snapback]299617[/snapback][/right] Well I've got an answer for the Ford EDIS question. It is an Electronic Distributorless Ignition System. The spark's dwell and timing is controlled by the ECU and EDIS module instead of by the distributor. If I remember correctly the system is also "wasted spark" meaning one coil provides spark for two cylinders. One spark is "wasted" because at the same time one cylinder is on it's compression stroke the other is on its exhaust stroke.
