RB30 upgrade to injected V8

[VKDIRCTR]

Looking at converting an RB set up to a injected 355. My question is, to use the original cluster, how would I get the VN ECU to talk to the VL cluster eg water temp, oil switch and so on.

Set up is the following
- Injected VN V8 motor
- TH700 Box
- VN ECU
- Original VL cluster and wiring.
Is there an adapter of some sort to get the ECU talking to the VL Cluster?
Other option was to go Carby and run an ignition box like ICE ignition or something similar.

Any help would be appreciated.

You will find on a VN that the water temp and oil switch are connected direct from the dash to the engine and not the ecu.

Assuming it will need the V8 harness from a VL or not?
My last build was Carby and built a custom dash so didn’t require any of the standard cluster wires.

You will find on a VN that the water temp and oil switch are connected direct from the dash to the engine and not the ecu.

Sniper EFI. Will take a lot of headache out of it. Plus it looks cooler too!

you'll need convertor/corrector like something from dakota digital or vdo to convert or correct signal on 6cyl dash for v8...or see sparky or auto instruments place can modify your tacho...last option is buy v8 dash lol

can modify your 6cyl engine harness & sensors etc to suit v8 conversion
