    hi guys, in other words by removing the ecu what other than the dash speedo will i have to bypass to make work again , does the ecu control climate control or abs or the steering rack solenoid , is there some way i can inject the engine using the same injection setup and run the standard ecu without a crank trigger

    why can't you run crank angle sensor? You can use an 808 ecu, checkout delcohacking.net, BCM controls climate control, hi level lux, abs has it's own computer.

    thanks for the reply , i was told by several turbo buick sites that the timing front cover of the late model is interchangeable
    but how do i run the later harmonic balance to suit the crank angle sensor as it as different belts

    Some more info about the engine might help. Is it out of a GN? Does it use a distributor?

    The VS PCM controls the trans. and the engine and nothing else. The BCM does interact with the PCM to enact the anti-theft system (power up the PCM).

    If it runs a distributor, the GM HEI signal should be usable into any aftermarket computer but if you want to use the 1227808 (VN, VP, JD/JE Camira, N13 Pulsar, Astra) you will have some extra work to do (what that work is I think what you are asking, yes?). An rpm signal is easy enough but the CAS has a second signal which is processed by the DFI module to determine which cylinders (paired) to fire.

    Sorry i didn't word correctly, i ment to say checkout the 808 ecu on delcohacking.net, i was just wondering why you couldn't run a crank sensor, nothing to do with 808 lol
