What have you looked into as a replacement lower flow rate injector that will fit the bosses?
I think Cordia Throttle Body Injection is a setup worth looking at. Its a good size throttle body, has good sized injectors for an Aseries and is an allrounder suited to NA and Boosted applications with its high pressure injectors.
Maybe a bit harder to source than the ford stuff though, but I do think the injectors will be a problem with the ford setup especially with 2 on an Aseries.
How slow can you make Injector pulses so to try and make the injectors suit that way?
Low pressure fuel doesnt leave much scope for controling flow by pressure adjustment.

Hmmm... Im thinking this coupled to an old Microtech D4s or D5 computer could be the ultimate low-budget EFI... I just happen to have a D4s (and a Haltech F9), but it's mapped for a 12AT...

I know my chances of getting it remapped ...

Good work on finding this!

this looks like a great project for someone who is willing to give up a weekend and a bit of spare dough to see if it will work I was thinking earlier about a gas research carby with a turbo draw through set up but have no idea about what needs to be done to the head to prepare it for a gas only conversion.
Also is this CDI unit similar to the carby shaped injection set up on the Opel/Holden Barinas

This guys engine is a mazda OHC running the carb throttle making 127hp at the wheels confirmed on popular dyno and had a datto 1200 with a worked a15 making 115hp at the wheels with the same setup.
It works but I think he used a microtech lt4 or something and Im more into making sure it works with a common junkyard computer.
Will keep you guys updated when he contacts me.

Just a thought but maybe CFI wouldnt need a destributor input because it doesnt really need to know injector firing order or timeing. Does any one recon converting this sytem to a a15 is possible

Why two? One is good for 185 HP. The Ford V8s used a single "two barrel" CFI unit.

Here's what my engine looked like -- at the crossroads of old-tech and new-tech (1984):

I had a '84 police cruiser, and an '85 cruiser (these were the size of a Falcon). Like these:
Open in new window

These were basically a Mustang 4-door (same chassis, suspension, engines, etc).

Both had 165HP. The '85 LX had 185 HP. It was impressive power in 1983-1984, but by 1985 was getting dated. (1985 was the year of the 210 HP Mustang V8 with holley 4-barrel carburetor -- and the 205 HP Taurus SHO naturally apirated 3-liter V6).

Anyways, here's somebody put two CFI on one V8:

Well the cfi would work great on local fords if they ran 2 of the buggers!!! on is a little small for the hefty piece of junk the ford 6 is.
Also Ive got a great update on someone who has gotten in before me and will know more soon but for now...
