sowa.. ignition wise, I am ignorant. What is the advantage of running distributorless?

Acurancy.

Less resistance in wires and lots of other advantages....... >>

So I have seen the megasquirt guys using the dual coil set up with the EDIS. I've also seen one blacktop guy run four individual coils. That would be nice, I am sure, but how much equipment would be needed?

Nik, have you tried lining the B series manifold up the an FE head? I know the GE and FE heads are a little different, will what you did with the manifold work on the FE heads as well?

By the way I have a silvertop here that's going into an AE92 and will be running megasquirt with EDIS ignition, if you guys are interested I'll keep you updated as the project starts.

he purchased a 4age header flange and welded it in place of the B-seriese header flange. You could easily do the same with a f series header flange.


Have you guys seen this?

Yes but is the spacing of the ports pretty much the same?

That's a NICE setup!

One thing I should ask. Is that a 7AFE head gasket or 4AG? It looks a bit different, cause usually 4AG head gaskets have openings for the two large coolant passages on the back of the block. Just curious...

I would then suggest you get a 4AG gasket instead. The reason those coolant ports are blocked off on the 7AFE is because the 7AFE flows water differently than the 4AG...

I say you should get a 4AG headgasket, to avoid hot spots in the head. Like I said before, the reason the gaskets are different, is because the 16V head flows water differently than the 4/7AFE/20V. The gaskets will all fit, more or less, but the way the coolant flows is the big difference. You'll notice right away when you put the head on the block that you'll probably need to do something about the water inlet/outlet. The 4/7AFE/20V has both inlet/outlet on the back of the head, while the 4AG typically has one by the water pump, and one in the back of the head. Get what I'm saying?

That's a good point. I think you might want to look into that a bit farther. My 4AFE hg was flipped upside-down (thanks a ton to my dad who put the gasket on when I wasn't looking in the first place) and even though the holes matched up, they still didn't match up 100% perfect. This caused a massive oil leak and took a ton of work to fix with the motor in the car.

Yes but Nik, did you try lining it up with the 7AFE flange? I understand it lines up pretty well to the 4AGE flange, but what about the 7AFE?

7AFE and 4AGE ports are nearly identical. It should work the same (B series manifold mod)...

i never lined up the 7af flange just the 4ag if lines up with the 4ag then you should be fine mating the 7afe falnge with that manifold minus a little cutting >>
