Injec engine management

Hey all,
Recently got my hands on an ancient Injec EM3, which Im sure ran the injection in the Model T.
Anyone know if these guys are still in business, or where I might someone that knows a bit about these?

Cheers. Joe.

*facepalm* I should read Freds post in its entirety. But there would still be an underlying issue. Im not sure how this forum is coded, but if its still has the original phpBB coding, an initialized thread is classified as post. If the forum is set to automatically lock posts for editing after a giv...

In the case of sale, tech and build threads, they should remain open, simply for the fact that, more often than not, they will need to be updated. Some even after a few months. General questions and pointless conversations can be locked after a few weeks. Most questions are usually well answered wit...

Your dead right. A Watts link will remove the lateral movement otherwise created by a Panhard bar, but in a drag environment, those lateral affects are near as makes no difference. Cornering is where a Watts comes into its own. With a panhard, the suspension geometry pushes to one side, which will m...

That hooks up alot better than I was expecting. I wonder if the bloke in the GTR saw that coming...

Kudos on a tidy Gemi. I think, simply by looking at yours in action, it would be safe to say a T/tube setup will be fine, albeit with some GFB's put in.

The car will be primarily used for street & strip, but I might take it to a track event or two. 400hp. Thats really is respectable. Do you get much squat or does it feel pretty solid on launch. Much wheel spin on launch? Im presuming here, that when you say 'watts link', you mean replace the pan...

You have a valid point there, but I've never been one for legal vehicle mods. Always done right, just not always legal. :wink: If this ends up getting a lickie, the car becomes de-registered, and used for strip/track and special events only. The intention for this car isn't to build a daily, or even...

Im stuck on which path to take on the rear suspension. Leave the standard setup as is, and just install an LSD center, or convert ...
