QuickSilver aftermarket EFI Conversion... This is how it went together:

 

Researched and purchase all the parts over a number of years before starting the conversion. Fabrication of mounts and brackets and small parts mostly completed prior to starting the conversion.

Pics below show:

All the gear ready to go in

Fitting of the wideband O2 sensor bungs into the extractors

Two VL Turbo fuel pumps and surge tank installed

Due to ignition upgrade, OEM current triggered tacho replaced by 5" Autometer Monster Tacho custom fitted with three LEDs.. One each for Blinkers, Shift Light and High Beam indicator in readiness for upcoming Autometer speedometer upgrade.

AEM Wideband O2 controller/guage was fitted into the original clock housing, output fed to the Haltech ECU

Thermofan fitted to front of radiator, I went this way to keep a clean engine bay. Controlled by ECU.

Throttle linkage had to be fabricated as the Throttlebodies operated on the other direction

Throttlebodies are fitted with Bosch bluetop high impedance injectors, triggered semi sequentially

Fuel rail was custom made in the shed and was a real challenge on my little Ryobi drill press. Very happy with the outcome, no leaks.

Installed MSD 6AL2, MSD Blaster 2 coil.

L28ET CAS/Distributor fitted with RB30 trigger disc delivers the Home and Trigger inputs to the ECU and distributes spark to the plugs. Went this way 'cause I prefer the old school look.

Has not been dyno tuned, all tuning has been done on road using the wideband O2 sensor and Haltech autotune as well as refinements offline via datalog. Very happy with progress so far, car is very drivable and performing well. WOT not fine tuned as yet and closed loop yet to be initiated. Rev limiter successfully tested.

 

Have a couple of video clips of first startup and tuned idle. will post a link when I work out the rest of this high tech stuff.

 

Cheers, DatoZed
