AndyR100 Posted September 17, 2021 Report Share Posted September 17, 2021 (edited) I hadn’t seen it mentioned elsewhere, but thought some may be interested in an active project in the US, gentleman has been producing FI inlets for 6-cylinder models and more recently for 4-pots. Initial info was available on a number of F/book pages (I know some folk are not big on that platform) however he is partnering with RATCO to bring it to market to a wider audience. RATCO’s website now includes some info. https://www.rat-co.com/tr-4a-5-250-6-products/fuel-injection Prices didn’t seem too crazy if that was a path you wanted to take. (no commercial interest or recommendation on my part) ..... Andy Edited September 17, 2021 by AndyR100 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I don’t think RATCO have announced pricing yet. i have seen 4-cylinder quoted at 1250 USD and 1400 USD for the 6-cylinder variant direct from the creator at the outset. ......

The Ebay ad did not mention a fuel return line, possible modifications to the petrol tank, and the need for a crank wheel and sensor for use with the Microsquirt ECU. The Microsquirt documentation seems to indicate that a GM HEI distributor pick up could be used, but would not be as accurate as a crank wheel. The Patton TBI system uses a Lucas distributor modified for the GM HEI Hall effect: http://www.pattonmachine.com/TBI-Distributor-Conversion.htm#Coils Link to Microsquirt manual: http://www.msextra.com/doc/pdf/Microsquirt_Hardware-3.4.pdf Edited September 18, 2021 by Andy303 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
