ok ok
seriously, assuming u want to run EFI on the original engine, simplest option is a fuel injection kit from Weber, which will run you about TT25,000
http://www.webcon.co.uk/alpha/throttleb ... e_list.htm

you can make your own fuel injection system by scrapping a pair of old webers to use as throttle bodies, and installing injectors in your intake runners....and don;t forget a high pressure fuel pump.
http://www.webcon.co.uk/Downloads/2008-WFP096.pdf

You will still need a management system to control it.
http://www.webcon.co.uk/alpha/index.htm

Anything from Weber, Emerald etc, but again that will be wort 10 times the value of your car.........
You can also graft motorcycle throttle bodies onto the engine

Finally, you can try transplanting a system form another engine, for example a toyota 20 valve engine with ITBs. You will need the ITBs as well as the complete harness to control everything.....not the simplest job in the world, and not worth the trouble for that car....it would be significantly simpler and cheaper to just swap engines........

trust me i won't.
but when you have a project like this, who the hell wants to EFI a 20 year old engine?
i mean be real a pair of side drafts or a huge single weber will do the trick :wink:

EFI ppfffffttttt :roll:

MG Man · Postby **MG Man** » May 23rd, 2010, 1:11 pm

yeah but a pair of throttle bodies made from a pair of webers will LOOK stock but give significantly better performance throughout the rev range

moti · Postby **moti** » May 23rd, 2010, 8:00 pm

^^ uh huh but as stated by MG Man it's gonna cost an arm and a leg for the management for that setup.

MG Man · Postby **MG Man** » May 23rd, 2010, 8:27 pm

yes but as a KANT under rehabilitation it is my duty to give a sensible response

yes, a thousand times yes.
an escort is a simple car and presents a very good opportunity to learn about the basics (in your case i suspect alot of trial and error)
but this is what makes it fun. all yuh need is correct fuel and spark and that baby will run :mrgreen:

speed needs to slow down and invest in some books, but based on his comments thus far, I doubt he will...more likely he will follow the misguidance of all the 'ole skool experts' out there
speed, PM gt4tified...he has the books you need
