"Ok guys, i know ive brought this up before but i wanted to inform those of you that dont know, and those that would like to know. been doing my home work for a while now before i start my boat project of swapping a chevy 1990 model tbi in place of a carb 260 mercruiser.
First of all i was wrong with what i had said in a previous blog,You can not find a o2 simutator for a tbi engine, there is no such thing.
what you do do is get a harness made and a chip along with it which specificaly made to your application, it excludes the o2 sensor, the egr and the knock unless you want them. Im guessing the set the engine to run off of the temp instead of the o2 in the exhaust. the result, a engine that probably doesnt adjust as much, but is still better than a carb.
the harness is $225 and the chip for it is $95
web site is"http://www.affordable-fuel-injection.com/tbi-wiring-harness.htm" they will tell you what ecm you need from gm.
There is a list of other items you need. I know this is going to be quite a project, but it is doable. any questions or comments are welcome.
also do you really need the big water fuel separator filter that is on the 260 mercruiser????"
