Hi, need some help here, i know nuts about Engine Management...

My car currently running on dual barrel carburators, I would like to convert to Fuel Injection.

I have already purchased the 4-throttle body kit, linkages, air filter, fuel rails.

Originally the engine uses a Mallory distributor and CDI ignition.

I would like to buy a standalone ECU, something like Haltech, Motec, Microtech etc...

I dont need anything highend, something basic that controls the fuel/throttle and ignition would suffice.

For the ignition, i plan to remove the distributor and use a crank position sensor. I have the crank pulley machined for this purpose....


Any ECU is recommended?

i dont really know much about these electronics so any help comment would much be appreaciated.

i already have

1. throttle bodies kit, linkage, filter, injectors fitted with TPS
2. Crank position sensor and trigger wheel
3. what other sensor do i need?
