would there be much market for this

[runnin4life]

Hi
I may possibly be able to get a 2.0 hilux motor left over from an engine conversion

What I would like to know would there be much of a market for an efi kit for these

Because I was thinking of making up an efi set up for it

The kit would consist of all the parts you can’t get from the wreckers

I know there is other efi engines out there for the lux but some people can’t afford that and this would cost $200 at the most (depending on what you pay for parts)

Would people be interested in this?

I think it would be fun to do

Any feed back would be great
cheers

Mate dont worry about the lux motor.

do a cheap kit for the 2F cruiser motor.
I know im up for one.
and i am pretty sure matt mcinnes i think his name is was looking the other day for one. there would be others too.
happy to play test pilot for sufficient discount heheh.

[matt-45]

count me in for a efi 2f

See mate, the 2F will be a hit.... if the $$ is all ok.

[Matt_88]

me too

[DIRTY ROCK STAR]

Zukin4life,
efi 2F kit is where it is at champ!!!!!

we are mad for it......

[runnin4life]

lol it was justa thought have to clear it with the olds as they run the place

but give a me crapped out 2F to get the shizit running and ill give it ago but would need a lot of thinking over first


hmmm
wouldnt be any thing exciting just make it a more reliable and smoother engine

[DIRTY ROCK STAR]

dude slightly better economy and power and to be able to run on slopes is all i want from it.
not expecting wheel stands.

run it past your olds then.
i reckon you could sell half a dozen on here in a week, and more once u started marketing it.


a crapper 2F, anyone got one?
i was close to buying one off ebay recently..

where are you at zukin4life?

[runnin4life]

west syd

still getting the balls up to ask them lol

i dont even have my P's yet

but can fabricate pretty well

[DIRTY ROCK STAR]

Hmmm just put a good case to them.
say look there is a market, no one does a "kit" really.
could be handy $$$.
be very popular. yada yada.

ON THE SAME TOKEN...

I have a 3F that could be used (in my truck) to heavily test this out aswell...

[azzyfj45]

Count me in for an injected 2f!

[DIRTY ROCK STAR]

Anyluck yet zukin4life???

[runnin4life]

nah no luck got the thumbs down

but in 6 months or so ill be able to do it
so sorry to get your hopes up guys but it will be done one way or another

just not at the moment

[tuf045]

so what would you guys call resonable price for a kit convert 2f to efi?

[DIRTY ROCK STAR]

tuf045, that would depend on whether it was all inclusive, ease of installation etc.

why what are you thinking???

[tuf045]

mate was just wondering out loud. but i can't see it being to hard. Your car is petrol isn't it? if so how about a engine bay photo to have alook what could be done?

[DIRTY ROCK STAR]

Roger that.
Yeah its petrol.

Will grab a photo

[tuf045]

with the price of fuel wouldn't it be easyer to convert to gas and get cheaper fuel and solve the stalling on hills in one go?

[DIRTY ROCK STAR]

Thats the other plan.

why not do both???

Gas is the future of my pig i think. i just need the gas carby and maybe do it properly and convert the internals of the motor to suit.
but its not overly cheap either.

fuel storage could be a problem on short wheel base with duel fuel? I personally think that gas would be cheaper to set up properly than efi if you can do stuff yourself ie: buy secondhand tank and mount it yourself. There is a place at berresfield that sells second hand ones you just need to know what dimensions that you need. I was quoted $258 for one to go in the back behind the seat on a gq. A mate brought a gas ring and convertor to forced induction for around 4 hundred, then you just need to contact someone that installes gas around your way to get them to run the lines and hookup shutoff valves and fuel gauge then they will sign off on it and be all legal.

when i get round to it i will probally use a 4.0 ford system

either make a adaptor to run the throttle body on the 40 series manifold or make an adapter to bolt the hole manifold and all off the ford onto the 40 series block

the second way might be better as it would have all the injectors and so on not sure

why use ford crap when delco stuff is so cheap and programable were the ford is not as adaptable and is harder to programme.
i can see that it would be easier to adapt the dizzy but that would be able to be overcome with the delco.

[runnin4life]

to simply put it every thing is done by ford almost all i have to do i make up stuff and plug this in to that and bolt this there

and plus i wouldnt have a clue how to programe any of that shit

[DIRTY ROCK STAR]

tuf045,

sounds like a goer.
I can get a tank for free just have to check the use by and capacity.
So all i need is gauge, lines run, and yeah the engine modified with A a gas ring and convertor to forced induction for around 4 hundred, do you know where he sourced that from?

[tuf045]

drs the place he got the gas ring and convertor was at edgeworth behind the car jard where kennards hire used to be. will find out there name and let you know. the brand of the gas ring and the convertor was air rod. as for the engine being modifed, if was me i would just fit some upper clyinder lube and worry about it later( as in when the engine lets go from the turbo or supercharger that go with forced induction gas ring!

[spazbot]

what about just getting a old holly projection rig (single point injection) and hooking it up to the 2f manifold ??

[DIRTY ROCK STAR]

Spaz,
Having driven shorty40s old beast that was a top mod.
but $$ for money im thinking gas might be the go hey.
Gas is cheaper to run and cures angle issues all in 1 go.

unless you know of one going filthy cheap!!

tuf045,
If not worrying about a turbo etc, whats needed then?

[tuf045]

DRS you can use the same gas ring and convertor bur not put forced induction on it!

still trying to get the name of the buisness. the name of the buisness is arrow gas or it may have possibly changed to AAA parts? or somthing like that.
