    Holley will operate the stock GM ignition module timing control from 80s timing control HEI and will screw right in to a regular HEI distributor. Just need to pin the mechanical advance. I’ve dun this several times. So Fitech is not the only one that will work.

    Great Info in here Mike. I'm also planning on EFI for my Trans Am. Never grew up with carbs. A lot of the older muscle car owners hate on EFI but usually they have bad experiences due to poor install.
    I'll have to check out your alternator video you mentioned, as a lot of these EFI systems like having a sound, well sorted electrical system.

    • @FastMonty
      @FastMonty  Год назад +1

      Thanks Brother... yeah, definitely need a well sorted electrical system. ALL of the issues I've had with my car has been my own fault. Including clamping down on the distributor wires, how dumb. I just had another issue yesterday with the way I wired this... so, stay on the look out for a follow up video to this one. (Crazy I didn't have the issue until I was cruising for over an hour... anyway, live and learn) Thanks!

      Quick question about your battery: you mentioned you relocated it to the trunk. Did you do this to improve weight distribution, or another reason? I would imagine A-bodies are front heavy like most muscle cars, my F body certainly is.

    Fun to see this new fangled tech! It works great and I am Tempest (get it) to move over to it. I have HEI on a 1978 305 and still running points in the 1964 389 in the Bonneville but just not quiet there yet. I once got stranded in a TR4 because the Mallory electronic box failed so I'm a bit gun shy. Post a video about how it goes over the next months year or so and I may just pop on this system. Thanks! Bobby

      Thanks Bob... yeah, I hear you about being gun shy. I've had my share of weird behavior, and electrical issues... as mentioned in this video. All issues I've created, ha, ha... ie, don't clamp your distributor wires down, with the distributor. The engine didn't like that for some reason? ha, ha... thanks for the comment!

    why cheat with a darker environment on the "after" picture? To make the spark more pronounced.

    Not convinced this is an modern upgrade. A coil on plug would be much more ideal and eliminating a problematic CD box..

    • @FastMonty
      @FastMonty  Год назад

      A coil on plug would be awesome! If it existed. Doing so takes A LOT of work to convert an old engine to handle that... cam sensor, ECM module, etc... so, until that becomes an "Easy" mod, this is the next best thing. Thanks!
