Re: 3 liter, 24 valve engine project

Cool - I'll test again when the leaks are fixed.

Re: 3 liter, 24 valve engine project

The original intake manifold he gave me was so poorly built that the manifold intake ports did not align with the intake runners (see picture of...

Re: 3 liter, 24 valve engine project

Seattle's first snowfall of the season is scheduled for this weekend - a good time to start tearing the GTV6 apart to fix the things that have been bugging me. I'm installing an idle air control stepper motor which will allow me to set a target idle rev point and have Megasquirt manage the valve to ...

Re: JK 24v 3liter ..at last!

Hi Jim:

Are you still happy with the RWD plenum you used in your conversion?

Re: pwm idle valve Q

Hi Tim: I currently have no idle speed control (24valve running MS II) simply because I have not had the time to implement one. Even so, its pretty reaosnable.

Re: 3 liter, 24 valve engine project

Yes - Charles (squadragrunn) won the GTA injectors so those will be going to EU. Shipping seems unreasonably expensive though :(
