The V8 Owners Forum -

cheers bill, just what i was looking for..... so if the basic kit will run edis8, does that mean that it will frun edis 6 and 4???? ..... my biggest confusion with MS is whats inside the ECU its self as standard, because i think EXTRAEFI has confused me with all the different ecus they sell for diff...

yeah got it all sorted.... the ignition amp was breaking down.... didnt find out untill it wouldnt start one day, and found i wasnt getting a spark...... changed itt for a complete MSD ignition... made hell of a lot of difference it happened again not so long ago, but that turned out to be a knacke...

oh got yeah.....

think ive made a bad impression on some one


ive tryed read the manual on MS website and doesnt make any sensor to me thats why im on here

In answer to your question about CR, IMHO the only real way to work theoretical CR is by buretting the heads and the pistons at TDC. The head gasket can be calculated. The CR can then be worked out using a bit of maths. A few months ago you posted about this engine not running at high revs, did you...

wasnt ment to shout, must av put caps on..... so what the hell is rtfm???

All 3.5 and 3.9 heads have 36cc. chambers the 4.0 and 4.6 engines have 28cc chambers but use thicker composite gaskets and have different pistons to adjust the compression ratio. Are you saying you don't know how much was removed from the heads! How many bolts do your heads have? Kevin. its a 10 bo...

well, 1 BAR is 1 atmosphere, so 15 BAR means your engine is compressing the air in the cylinder to 15 times the resting static pressure, you're therefore prsumably close to 15:1-ish CR... the question is how much the head work means the airflow velocity through the ports is causing the air to cram ...

i think i need to go and see a doctor and get some pills.....


i got realy excited looking at some of those pics, which i dont think is normal......... TIG welding is just a beautiful art form which i wish i could do

ok ive done alot of work to my rover V8 and alot of money has been spent on it.... first off its a 3.9 injection engine with the 9.35 heads, so should have a compression of 9.35:1 ........... but ive had the heads skimmed more than enough and have fitted the thinner tin head gaskets, to help increas...

ok i know if you put an LPG conversion on an engine and its multiple injection instead of the blow back single point injection that fits onto the intake air pipe, you usualy fit injetors that basicaly look like they have come from a pip fitting shop and are controled by a soliniod....... but is it p...

thanks guys, thats helped me loads.... i know it can be done now, so say bye bye mister petrol tank



if i do get a problem with it freezing, ill just make sure ive got a blow lamp with me and ill just set fire to the damb thing!!!!!!

well not literaly!!!!!

well when i finaly get my head around how mega squirt works, ill be changing my prince of darkness dizzy to ford EDIS..... ... first off is there an actual one unit edis 8 or do you need 2 edis4's and wire them together???? how would this work? would 2 of them fire together and work like a wasted sp...

yeah pics will be great... nice one so what version of MS do you have???? what sort of imputs does the MS need because i never saw anything like a throttle postion sensor, and dont understand how the ecu can tell when your pressing the accelerator!!!!!! i would think that the map sensor would take a...

if i was to buy a megasquirt II V3.0 ecu, what stuff would i have to change on my RV8 to get it up and running????? im intrested in changing to EDIS8 so i know ive got to change all the ignition parts, and i know ive got to fit a MAP sensor, trigger wheel/sensor........ but is there anything else i ...

a chip want cut it!!!!

got to be an ecu change.....



so come on you MS and VEMS owners.....win me over with your specs as i need as much info on these as possible
