So y'all build up new engines for customers with the EFII already installed? Interesting...

What about a....
From the looks of that fuel controller, it seems like it MIGHT be easy to convert a std (NA) engine to this system. I gotta hear more - I'm about to drop $$$ into mags and an O/H 550 fuel system. I'd hate to do that and then find out that this is about the same cost....!!!
Robert: will you be at Reno?
Carry on!

EFII at Reno
Yes, we will be at Reno, Thursday thru Sunday.
We will have a motorhome in the race support camping area.
Give me a call when you're there and we can look over the system on Relentless.
After this effort, we will be a short step away from having a full system for the direct drive big bore Continentals. Including integrated ADI control if you like lots of boost!

Mark, I expect the cost will be a bit higher for the EFII system on the big bore Continentals... but the results should be worth every penny. What variant of the IO-550? I'll see if we can get one over here in socal for Robert to look at AFTER Reno.

My only request is you let is test on dyno before you blast off in your project. |

IO550N in this case - I actually have 2 of 'em...but I can explain!
Carry on!

Piece o cake. If you get it set up, do the settings transfer to succeeding applications with the same engine?
Carry on!

That wouldn't be a problem at all... though I'm still a couple years away from needing (and being able to afford) an engine. Ground testing is good!
(Perhaps I'm biased as a ground test engineer  )

How hard (expensive) is it to get your engine tested on a dyno? Where would you go for that?

You could check with some of the airboat builders in your neck of the woods. Be sure to test it before and after you put Robert Paisley's EFII systems in. Bet you'll be surprised!
I'm sure happy with my dual ignition system from EFII.
