I'm wondering the options on running a delco on a small block chev, its on a 350 with an ice electronic ignition. I would go multipoint if it goes ahead and run the timing through the ecu. What ecu would be best for this sort of a thing obviously staying with the map sensor, what sort of trigger setup would I need? The distributor runs a basic chopper wheel in it.
Has anyone done this before and do people think its a good idea.
Cheers

Re: delco on a small block chev
ive done it before on a 350 chev with ICE setup. I cut off the plug going from the dizzy to the module, threw the ICE module away and wired the hall effect sensor in the dizzy directly into a 304 ignition module. connected the rest up to the delco and put one of those F.A.S.T injection quad throttle bodies on it. tuned on an 808 with $12P, worked well.

Re: delco on a small block chev
Assuming you have an ICE distributor, the phasing of it's chopper wheel and rotor button may well not be the same as a Holden V8 distributor which is set up right for a Delco ECU. They should be able to tell you and change it if necesary.

Re: delco on a small block chev
im doing a 350 conversion at the moment here http://pcmhacking.net/forums/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=3077. i can give you a complete wiring diagram to suit a reluctor/magnetic type pickup with no a/c if you want. its all based on a vn/vp v6 commodore wiring harness

Re: delco on a small block chev
the ICE dizzy we used on the conversion I did worked fine with the delco.... exactly the same as a 304 dizzy.

Re: delco on a small block chev
its been a while but this project is back on the to do list, so iv got the ecu setup, made a loom, about to start on a tune but i seen somewhere on another thread 12p doesnt support spark cut? i was hoping to set this up as timing only 
can anyone clarify this for me? thanks

Re: delco on a small block chev
yep thats correct, you'd need to use $11P if you want spark cut.
No matter what the question is, the answer is always more horsepower! 
Just starting out? Have a read of the getting started guide

Re: delco on a small block chev
ive used 11P recently on a spark only setup, disabled all the gearbox codes, and other than that, set it up the same as a 12P spark only. it was in a carbied 308. the spark cut worked perfect for what we wanted.

Bugger
ive just done the loom to suit the 808 ecu
Back to the drawing board lol thanks guys

Re: delco on a small block chev
Pins for 424 are the same as 808, just need to depin the PCM plug and repin to a blue connector
