On Robins car I intend to use the trigger up front and use the OB2 PCM with just CAT deletes and maybe speed density-probably what ever Corey wants to tune it to----Did I tell you that he is now working at Victor/Dana research center?
Thanks Jerry, I'm aware that there are lots of options for triggering the ignition, and my question was more to what's your plan, since you seemed to be glossing over that key point, but were saying that you're retaining the OEM EFI. As they say, the devil's in the details, and it sounds like the answer is that you're taking care of the distributor move and then looking to Corey for the details on what he'll need to make it work. If only we all had that Corey resource available!
