I have a 72 EA80 1.7 with dual weber 34 ict's. I am interested in converting it back to FI, D-jet I believe.
Has anyone done this? How hard, how much, can I still find all that is needed to convert it back? Thoughts and comments? T |

I have enough 1.7 EFI parts in my garage that we should be able to assemble one working system. I'm more or less local to you, as well. I'd advise getting a new harness from Jeff Bowlsby. The only aircleaner I have is one of the old oil bath types, so you'd have to hunt up a '73 airbox if you'd prefer the paper filter type.
You might also consider this an opportunity to try an aftermarket ECU, which would mean not having to find a working MPS (I have 3 or 4, but I have no idea if any of them work). A pre-built MegaSquirt ECU would add $350 to the project, but wouldn't require an MPS, and would be fully tunable. PM me if you're interested. |
