Whats needed to get std Zetec injection working
What does it take to get the std injection working on an 1800 Zetec in an Indy?
I have everything for the engine bar the ECU. Megasquirt would replace that i guess. What else is needed? This is of course dependant on being able to
fit the injection into the chassis.
Would this route be better/cheaper than Bike carbs?

Had a measure up and the black plastic thingy sticks out by about 3" so i think it would be better to go bike carbs!

Go for bike TBs for the fuel and treat your self to the Emerald ECU. I'll even send you the map for it. It seems the ECU is the tricky bit to
sort. With the Emerald just wire it up to the sensors/injectors and power and off you go. The software is good and you can tell in seconds if anny of
the sensors are not working or disconnected....Real just plug and play stuff.
