EEC-IV BBF?

[Hickfied]

Has anyone seen one? I have been building a 460CI SBF (waiting on heads & shortblock), but the only reason I was staying SB was because of the FI.

I have been thinking, and I can use a carb intake w/ injector bungs, and a elobow for my TB. I think the only thing that would hold me up would be the distributor? Is there one in the aftermarket with a TFI setup that I would need for the 87-93 fox? Or even OEM?

Does anyone see other limiting factors on a "drop in" FI BBF?

I was looking around the engine management section over on corral and there were some posts from guys running EEC-IV on their big blocks. Might want to check them out or check out ford460.com

The mid 90s F250s had EFI 460s.

Can't remember if its TFI or not . . .

They did had a TFI module, but it was a remote setup, such as the SN95 5.0's.

I found this link on how to retrofit a tfi module onto the dizzy:

I have seen pictures of a fuel injected 460BB in a lx.


I believe the 460 uses the same distributor as the 351w's don't they? If so it wouldn't be hard at all to do a fuelie 460! The hardest part then would be finding a hood that will clear a setup like this with a intake elbow and throttle body.

That remote mount setup is actually better at least from the standpoint
of the tfi module not failing due to all the heat from the engine and radiator.

Would be far best to get the distributor, short wiring harness, and the
tfi module receptacle all together than to try to modify any existing distrib.
If you get one off a 460 you're all set.

Then you'd need either a dyno tune & chip, or a tweecer (and all that
learning), or the latest version of the AFM PMS which reportedly is lots
easier to use but doesn't have quite all the capability of the tweecer.
I recently read up on it a little and it does seem to have most of the
major bases covered. The PMS is just under $1,000.

Now, for a strictly budget setup, I've wondered about using a decent
magnetic pickup distributor with a CD box and getting the pip signal
the efi ecu needs to run the efi system from somewhere in that system -
if that's possible. Then you could at least easily tune in a decent advance
curve and would just have the fuel delivery side of the ecu to worry about.
with big enuf injectors and a matching MAF like the latest versions from
PMAS you should be pretty decent shape on that, not that a tune or tuner
device wouldn't pick up some addition power thru a closer matched tune.

I might be looking into something like this someday. I looked at a spyder intake a while back and a site that had the carb intakes with the inj bungs. I'll have to see if I can find the links for ya when I get home.
