im thinking for of starting a project again and ive got a MFI rst engine in my garage but i want to use an EFI inlet, and the donor car with be an EFI, ive been told that i will need a MFI to EFI adaptor plate,

is this correct or is there another way??

cheers

 

yes on the head if its an mfi head. or use an efi head

 

you'll need the CPS hole in the block if you're running OFAB/C EFi

 

Not strictly true, there are other ways.

You can use a CVH Sierra crank pulley, alternator pulley and timing belt cover if you dont have a CPS hole or dont want to drill it.

Or even easier, use something like this but with the 36 -1 pulley! and keep all the original parts!

 

thanks for all the comments guys

does anyone know where i can get one of the adatpor plates from please??

 

Jano has them on the shelf www.oddkiddcreations.co.uk

 

thanks alot for that m8

 

Well, it's a little harder as you have to align the 36-1 tooth trigger wheel and CPS with the crank and you need brackets made up for the CPS. You also loose the "Factory" look, but you do get to keep the pulleys, Sierra ones are super hard to come by.

I certainly would choose one of these methods over drilling the block though!

Im thinking of doin this and getting rid of the crap MFI (tho at the mo its ok). I take it i need the following:
Fiesta rs turbo wiring loom and ecu (OFAC is best?)
Something for the CPS (Dont wanna drill or take out block so guessing sierra pulley etc)
FIesta rs turbo efi inlet manifold,throttle body,charge carrier (wanna use my polisged mfi one is that ok?) and sensors.
Then its just a case of fitting the parts,disconnecting the mfi part of the loom (will tape out of way in case wanna put back to mfi in emergency!),running engine loom bit of fiesta loom and conncting sensors back up.
WIll this then enable me to turn up the boost slightly (running 10psi- wanna go 15psi) or will it still need setting up or will the efi compensate for this?

 

I have a full set of 1800cvh gear already machined and ready to go but unfortunatly, the trigger ring has been machined to 4 teeth as it was removed from a cossie managed car.
The brackets for the cps are pretty simple as long as they are solidy mounted, take the ones above, i made one up and had it copied at a local firm near me, all laser cut and nice! i only had 4 teeth trigger rings made as i was using them for cossie management conversions i had to do, but you can get the universal trigger discs from here..http://trigger-wheels.com/store/index1.html, and as for lining them up, you slacken the bolt, move the disc to the required position, then tighten the bolt! sorted, fully adjustable!!

 

gadget m8 how much for the 1800cvh setup

 

You have PM

 

Might go cossie. Whats needed for that apart from your crank setup.

 

where can i get this set up mate ?
