RE: [T3] Haltech or equivalent

["A. P. McIlwraith" <mcilwraith@aircooled.net> (by way of Greg Merritt)]

Tom Hansen is dealing with the problem of fitting suitable PEFI gear to his
T4 powered Notch as we 'speak'. The pix aren't up yet, but check out
http://home.att.net/~drsowatt/page7t4eng.html there is an e-mail link on the
home page, he's so' watt of a recluse and quite shy, but he may answer if
asked nicely. The problem with PEFI on T3s is that deck height rules out
many twin throttle body set-up [Gene Berg style] such as that fitted to Dan
Z's Bug, view here http://users.aol.com/my65bug/2110.htm and compare it with
his Notch pix. Tom has gone for a single GM 3.0l V6 t/body and custom plenum
using a Haltech brain. I'm going a slightly different way by customising a
'junkyard' plenum and similar t/body arrangement [but using Subaru], at this
stage. I am also using stock Type 4 runners and fuel rail/injector set-up,
but I stress I am only at the mock-up stage, Tom is more advanced. I have
not seen any problems that cannot be overcome. I have sent you a fair bit of
info off list, Wolf3d have a USA website, start here then go to dealers/USA
http://www.wolfems.com.au/ , Haltech have a USA site or Geneberg.com, most
of the other brands I have sent you are listed at the end of the sections.
Any prices I give you would be for Australia but you can e-mail me if you
wish. I have just purchased a Microtech system for my [ex carbie]
Landcruiser, I'm fitting a USA spec FI engine, minus California c%^p, a
friend 'hill climbs' T4 powered T3s using this and custom built [at home]
plenum and single t/body as Tom's doing. It's the lowest priced but Aus only
at this stage, I'd have no worries recommending Haltech or Wolf3D from my
personal experience and can send you a PDF of the current Wolf manual as
soon as you like. It is a good learning tool for PEFI in general.
Sorry this is so long fellahs, but it's a big subject.
