December 1, 200619 yr ok so I have 2 carbed EA82s in parts cars currently and I was wondering if one of them would work in place of an SPFi engine? I would put all my SPFI intake and such onto it but I wasn't sure if the compression differences would make it that different...
December 1, 200619 yr Runs fine - just increase the base timing setting a bit for the lower comp. Maybe 22 degrees or so. GD
December 1, 200619 yr I've heard of several people doing exactly this swap. The only thing you'll have to deal with is making some ASV block off plates, which is easy.
December 1, 200619 yr The answer would be, duh! People put SPFI on a Carb'd motor all the time (*cough* Phil's Wag, DrK's Sedan)... which is essentially what you're doing.

I shoulda thought of that! I guess thats what happens when you're trying to think and are really sick at the same time:rolleyes:
