Rick Norris Crown Corv-8

The stock, 30-something year old  fuel lines were discarded for stainless line.

At right, another shot taken through a mirror (the tan colored frame is the dead give-away), showing the location of the high pressure fuel pump and the fuel lines.

Below is the ignition and fuel system by Electromotive. It's a multi-port system on a Weiand single plane intake manifold with injector bosses cast in.

The ignition uses a magnetic pickup and trigger wheel on the crank pulley and 4 individual coils to fire the plugs. It has all the same sensors used in '90s cars.

The microprocessor is contained in the aluminum piece under the coil pack and it is accessed and tuned with a laptop computer.

The picture on the right shows the magnetic pickup and trigger wheel installed at the crank pulley. The system is accurate to within 1/4 degree. There shouldn't be any problem firing on all 8 with this setup!
