Don) - With the Ford EFI, it doesn't matter too much where it comes from (302 vs 460), just so long as the system could do originally what you want it to do on your Mopar. So basically, as long as its an eight cylinder sequential system, you're golden once you change a few things. I'm using the 302 system on my 413. The 302 came with 19lb/hr injectors which can't very well support a big Chrysler. I'm going to use 24lb/hr injectors. The only thing you have to do is tell the computer the important new details: the displacement, the injector size, etc. Whether you do this on a 460 computer or a 302 computer, you'll get more or less the same results. The only big differences to expect are the spark and fuel tables as the 460 was found in trucks and likely tuned toward low end torque whereas the 302 came in the Mustang, among others and is tuned more for the top end. You may argue that the map for a 460 is already close to a big block Chrysler map, but due to its lack of popularity, finding out where things are stored in a 460 computer (they won't be at the same memory address as in the popular 302 computer). But just about every secret has been gleaned from the 302 code. Thus, you'll have a much easier time tuning the 302 computer.

I am familiar with EFi and taught the subject for 7 yeares at provincial trade school. > First thing to remember is the efi doesn\t know or care what type of motor is under it so you can fit any system if you have it complete with ease. > Watched a former student make a double throttle body top for a mustang efi manifold on his 302 and then stuff the whole deal into a Capri. It worked good enough he had some one come along and buy it from him. > He made the manifold top from 4x4 box tubing for the plenum and steel tubing of the proper size underneath. > For a big block Mopar my gut instinct would send me looking for a 460 Ford truck system . I know it would handle the airflow and fuel delivery and would be an excellant jumping of point . After that an aftermarket computer or power chip wpuld probably do the job. > Also have a German Hot rod magazine with an article on how to convert an early hemi Hilborn unit to Gm off the shelf injectors and a britsch made computer. I am not sure where it is right now but I know I did not throw it out. . Bought it in the Worms Deutschland train statrion as a Present to myself on my 50th birthday. > However, I thin k Cam design is an area we need to look into as well. > We have with the mopar cams the ability to open the valves at a tremedous rate due to the .904 lifter diameter. Add to that a set of 1.6 rocker or even the 1.75s Erson used to make (and hopefully still do) for the big block mopar power we could run a cam with high velocity action with a duration at .050 of say 231 and yet have the duration at 200" (or even .100") meet or exceed our current big pro street cams. I know it would need a little tweaking but I want to play with it to see what happens. > > I think if I become rich I would really like to build a lightened PT Cruiser wih only 2 doors (Panel van) and a new 5.7Hemi done to the nines. However It is not likely to happen. > Don > [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] > > [AD removed for archives] > ------------------------------------------------------------------- > Do you live vicariously through Reality TV?
