Re: Adapting GM ECM to Chrysler Turbo

["Thomas Matthews" <tmatthew@stny.lrun.com>]

I looked into this when I had a Mopar...
1. Ignition is questionable, but if you used the GM module, I think it would
work- the Mope is magnetic. This part of my research I did not finish.
The Mopar dist from the mid-late 80's is a piece of crap IMHO, with some
machine work you may be able to adapt something better.
2 No way around this one... TPS should work though.
3. It is really easy to adapt a CryCo external regulator to take over for
the SBEC- I did it on my car.
4. True- MP, Forward Motion, and someone else (can't remember the name
offhand) have upgrades, but for a custom app the GM ECM is perfect as it's
already hacked, I was planning to go with a 749 in my project before I sold
it.
What are you going for- Super 60 type performance or something more?
