well i have a 93 lx hatch. i have done a full sn95 suspension swap so far. i also have a teskid block laying around in my basement. im thinking about a 4.6 2v aluminator swap.
i looked at carb and efi, efi will be cheaper, so thats the route i want to go.
i want to run the 2v for clearance, and engine bay room, and well it will be cool with an aluminum block.
also the far future plans include a turbo, because i just can not add a turbo to something.
but for now, the mark VIII long block is taking up space.
i have a few questions, can i run the PI heads and ignition off a pre 99 ecu? 99 and up is cop and lower is the coil packs so i do not know if theres a way to make this work so i do not need to tune around PATS.
i know of the basics, k member, trans cross member etc. i would like to stay auto for now, the gf would like to drive it once and well she can not drive stick. so i know the 4r70 works well, but if i recall the mod motor had an aod in the early vics. would this trans work? would the 4r70 need any extra wiring or sensors (wheel speed) that were not on the fox?
anyone used the aod in the fox swap? i would like the 4r70, but as mentioned i do not know how the ecu would work out.
with mark pistons and pi heads i know ill need to run 93 octane as the cr will be above 11-1 but is there any other downside? ( i know turbo thats in the future)
also does the 02 harness that goes to the ecu have an obdII port? can one be added? if so how?
i have been stalking, and i have searched a bit, but the wiring is something im not too sure about.
and finally, as for removing the egr, etc, i know it can be tuned out, but can i just remove the pins? i only want to run what is needed, this will simpifly things a bit, but will i need a custom tune, or can a standard tuner handle this?
thanks heres a pic of the car now
