I am  looking to put fuel injection on my Corvair engine.  There are a couple 
 of kits available, but they are more than I am looking at spending.  I am  
interested in the Megasquirt system.  Anybody have any  advice?




The electronics may be the easiest part of the installation. The integral  
intake manifold and the"opposed" layout of the Corvair engine make linkage  and 
injector location a big, if not the big, issue. It can be done and there are  
dozens of Corvair motors running with FI, but there is no "bolt-on" system.  
Almost all the installs require removing and modifying the heads, although  
perhaps a center mount 4-barrel-like set up with a throttle body (complete with  
TPS and IAC motor) located in the center and an injector located over each  
(140) cylinder head inlet (the stock 4 inlets) could work. Perhaps a  6-cylinder 
kit (ready for 6 firing impulses) but using a 4-barrel replacement  
controller (ready for the 4 injectors) might be adaptable. - Seth  Emerson
