I carb swapped my 93 lx hatch and I highly recommend progression ignition’s distributor with the racing features. You can change the timing, rev limiter, 2 step launch rev limiter, nitrous retard, etc all on your phone through their app on the fly in real time. It also has a built in kill switch. Definitely an amazing option for anyone going to a carb
My dad carb swapped his 89 vert (now mine) by using the method of just unplugging the salt and pepper shakers, keeping the computer tfi wiring for spark, and stock efi pump with monster regulator... it worked great! And I appreciate that it made it super easy for me to refit EFI back onto it once I inherited the car.
That’s a lot simpler than I thought it would be Brother! Seems like the most expensive part would be the carburetor if you are just doing the swap! 💯 I absolutely agree on the MSD products lately! Great job with the voiceover! 👊🏾👊🏾
Thank you sir 🙏 it’s crazy but the mega squirt is cheaper than the MSD setup. Especially if you go Micro squirt
@@BREW2LFOXBODY That is crazy!! Things that make you scratch your head!!😁 From what I’ve read on MicroSquirt… it’s a very simple install which makes it an even better option than MSD. 😎
Yep on the msd, stuff is junk. I’ve got a new coil, faulty. Older 6al2 box. Just went out couple weeks ago. Freaking sucks. I know the new box is gonna be junk. Not even gonna waste the money on it. What’s a pain is before the coil went out, I was having all kinds of drivability problems, long starts, and it ended up being that new coil. I put the old motorcraft one back on and is been running fine.
@jcnpresser I've had some bad luck with MSD. Foxbody coil,3800 coils(3) lasted 6 months bf ALOT of random misfires. Foxbody coils are just dead. But I can say I had a 6AL & BTM last years so I guess it's just a gamble.....
Lots of good info there..thanks for the video!!!!
Appreciate all the information my man. You always make it look easy, lol.👈💯
Great job on the video, a ton of information and explaining the options. Keep up the great work bud.
My coupe was already swapped to a carb when I got it and I absolutely love it. No way I would switch back! Thanks for this info though! I’m going to look into how they did it and see if I need to make any improvements 👍
Good Informative Video!!!
God I love u this couldn’t have came up at a better time
Thank you so much for this video. I have a 83 efi 5.0 tbird and this will be so helpful when I move onto the engine.
You read my mind! Looking forward to switch to carburetor on my Lx. Had No idea where to start. Very informative video. Thank you.
Glad the video helped. I wish I could get even more detailed but I figure this would be a great starting point at least for someone looking to carb swap an efi fox.
You are telling the truth about the MSD boxes went through one so far looking for alternative
To me I'd switch to a carb to NOT EVER have to plug a laptop into the system again.
Thanks for the video Bmoney.
Good info
My car is gone into storage...but now I have to go check to see if my old MSD system has a retard dial.
Hi guys on my build I took the MSD system out and replaced it with a Progession ignition. Very easy to install and to control the boost and timing on my carburetor Supercharge engine. I could control everything with my mobile phone. Very good ignition.
sweet! I put a 6AL box in my 78 ford bronco and it solved a LOT of problems. I'm also in Bama in Huntsville. Dig the foxes!
Could you also use the same ground from your arm switch wired over to you or NOS button so you could not accidentally activate it without having the correct timing table in place?
MSD box aka mad box cause they’ll drive you mad when they go bad. Have had so many issues with em over years of fox bodies I refuse to run them anymore. Good stuff on the carb setup tho - I do love my Megasquirt EFI setup.
I agree. I try to stay away from them. But when they work they work. 🤣🤷
Brother! I’m trying to find that new hoodie. I don’t see it anywhere. I need a 2x
Awesome video! Unfortunately I can't ever have a carb set-up or even a smog/cat delete on my cars. My state is heavy into the government smog/emission testing and are only getting worse by tighting the limits each year. They even have mobile testing stations at a lot of the freeway on ramps that sniff the tailpipe and take pictures of your plate.🙄
You just went from an 86 back to an 85. Booyah
The modified pickup hanger or UPR type hanger are a good way to starve your engine for fuel and/or damage the pump. Aeromotive actually has a warning on their site about using those.
Microsquirt for data logging and ignition is awesome for boosted carb stuff. Cheaper and better than an msd box. Now you can go with LS coils and ditch the distributor
Are you just throwing ideas out there or are the LS coils an actual thing? I saw an individual coil setup done by Chicane back in the day but wasn’t aware people were doing this now
@@jvincemusic I run a 460 with a 36-1 wheel no distributor and LS coil packs. Been 7 years now. I also run a microsquirt on my diesel. Use it.for data logging, methanol control and boost control. It's far superior just to run micro over a msd.
Won't be much longer until we get a battle of the nitrous cars between you and Andrew 🤣🤣
I have an 82 mustang already carbed. Has factory duraspark ignition, can I install a megasquirt for timing changes? Running a small blower.
Got my distributor locked out, learned that trick from you and mine is fuel injected still. With the bigger cam in it, it seems to run better. I’ve had anywhere from 30-38 degrees and have had no starting issues. I’ve got around 32-34 right now, seems to be the best for what I’ve got. I slowly collecting the parts and money for a carb swap. I want cylinder heads also though. I think the car would run better with the cam that’s in it with a carb. Heck I have to baby sit in the morning till it gets done heat in it. Idles kinda crappy. Im so over the factory fuel injection 😅
If you ever decide to ls swap your fox , i posted a video showing how to run a carb with the stock gm pcm and stock coils for free been running it in my blow through sn95 for almost a year now
ok my only question is if im going to spend the money on a standalone ecu like the mega,micro wouldn't it just be smarter to buy that at the start and tune the car up with the efi? Feel like the easiest way to swap to carb is an Hei dizzy, manifold carb fuel regulator. Just curious is all.
Nice video! Nothing wrong with a good voice over video - sometimes you can get the information across better.
Great tip video ...
An epiphany I had while watching
It... ( when / if ) Instead of doing another awesome paint job on it , how bout having a bad ass wrapp design made with your BREW2L logo. ✌😎
Where did you get your wheels
Can you read Aramaic?
Check out daytona sensors tcs-1! I've been using it for over a year on my rx7 and it's a pretty badass ignition control. Boost retard and full tunable ign table for like 200$
What about going with a carburetor distributor, what would be needed for that? and how different would a CFI to carb swap be
i did this swap on my 84 cfi went with an hei distributor one wire will run it makes it simple but make sure you have the right gear on the distributor if yours is a flat tappet cam
@@kevinmartinez6037 what did you do for fuel, thanks
Hell yeah I'll have to get me one for the shop.. Great video sir
Thanks bro! I appreciate ya ✊
If you're living that true budget lifestyle, a Ford Duraspark 2 box, a factory ignition coil, and a factory 85 distributor will make the conversion easy, and it'll all cost about the same as 1 piece of MSD equipment. It's also very easy to adjust.
the GM style 4 pin HEI module will work with the Duraspark distributor also, and they are even less $$$
Do y’all know what the deal is with changing the distributor gear? I had heard something about that but can’t remember the reasoning
@@cuckertarlson69420 I got my 85 style distributor for less than $100 out the door. I haven't priced an HEI. But I've got another engine going together for my car, so I'll look into it.
@@jvincemusic my son's car, an 82, originally had a flat tappet cam, which requires a bronze distributor gear. But we put in a roller cam, which requires a steel distributor gear. You've got to know what kind of cam and gear you've got. O'Reilly's carries an 85 style stock distributor in both gears. You just have to make sure to order the part number with the correct gear for your cam.
@@KrisGreenhill flat tappet cams normally come with a cast iron gear not a bronze. Bronzes gears wear out fast and aren't intended for street cars.
Meh I’ll just keep my efi
Better drivability in the winter time. Doesnt stink like gas. Plus better fuel economy. Efi way better. I am not happy with the carb and hei distrubutor setup i have on my 86.
I agree but I’ve just never been a fan of carbs. I may be a lil biased but efi just seems all around better to me.
@Deeznuts84356 no doubt. Been down this road, never again. I'll deal with the stock ecu until I can't, then go to holley efi
I live above 5000 feet altitude. you want fuel injection up here. in the summer, a carb car is harder to start when its hot. no problem with fuel injection. also, great drivability in the winter with fuel injection, better than a carb on start up . however, if you want a carb, this is a nice set up. looks kinda like a holley clone carb. very nice.
Those 28s on the poop car?
I see 26 now!!! Looks good tucked up like that
Thanks for all the helpful information,
You’re welcome brother. Thanks for the support ✊
