In-tank pressure sensor is for vapor recovery system which you wont have installed. If you read the LTG Crate Motor instructions the inline sensor is included in the harness kit.

Don't think the PCM actually cares about low pressure side. It's basically a lift pump for the high pressure pump on these engines. Here's a few pics with a cracker in the back seat. :cheers: 20190629_153312.jpg 20190705_163612-EFFECTS.jpg Russ, Depends on the tune. Ill have to look back at the LTG...

Easily done with a tee, -6AN lines will be large enough for stock HP up to slightly molded. The LP FP sensor is a female thread. Part # 13579380

Just make sure the external pump can feed 50-60psi and it will work fine. Youll have to plumb the FP sensor into your system downstream of the regulator as the engine requires a fuel pressure input upstream of the HP pump. Make sure the regulator is located as close to the HP pump as possible so you...

skinny The B207 is an LK9 turbocharged version instead of the supercharged LSJ. You probably can find a good tuner and swap out the P12 (which you likely have) to a E67. https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/2-0l-lsj-performance-tech-47/want-run-e67-computer-your-lsj-powered-car-its-easy-304426/ ZZP may b...

Skinny... if you need an Ecotec breakdown here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GM_Ecotec_engine Basically a 2.4 NA that tops out about 190-200HP... I make that with the 1.4L Turbo... Best bang for the buck is a LHU or newer LTG - 2.0L Turbo, but I looked at doing a new boat and just doesnt make since ...

Torque is nothing but cylinder pressure x cylinder area x crank lobe offset It is absolutely useless number w/o rpm being involved and torque x rpm = HP If you want to run your engine at high torque which equals high cylinder pressure and lug the motor all the time... by all means let it blow! That'...

Russ,

He took the easy route and had someone else build it for him... his fingers wont hurt like ours have hours of splicing and soldering!

Just going to express my opinion... take caution when dealing with AFI... they burned a few of us airboaters in the past.

Ballistic makes a direct fit box for that motor

What you adapting to it?

If you have any issues with Swaptime, let me know. I have the wiring books for the 2.0 LTG. Its pretty much the same wiring as my LUV except with the addition of the direct injection components. Ill be on the water again mid-May. Taking care of my other hobbies and getting some things I wanted done ...

You go it going right... you dont need the front mounts I have... I bought them just for pattern purposes on building the mounts you already have built. Good luck to you. I hope you give Jerry @ BNR a shout to tune it when you area ready. When you get down to wiring and needing to replicate the VSS ...

I have a set of LTG front motor mounts ill give you so you can make patterns with them.

Custom build an idler... its easy.

Any plans for a benefit ride and farewell? I know one was done several years back when he semi-retired.

Ballistic is the only option for LTG unless you build adapters. LTG bellhousing pattern is different from other Ecotecs. Need to get a sealed gauge panel box such as a nema enclosure and run a Banks 1.8 IDash off the OBDII

Just saw this post. It was a pleasure to meet the man for sure.

You can remove the FPCM from the tune all together, just make sure the fuel pressure sensor is wired to the ECM correctly and in the regulated supply line to the High Pressure Cam Driven Pump. LHU fuel systems are direct injected so there are some extra steps that need to be made to assure there is ...

No issues with fuel heating at all... been running a Bosch 044 @ 58psi and Aeromotive return regulator. Regulator is on the return side and the fuel rail is a flow thru not a dead end. There is enough volume in the tank to keep it cool most of the time, also running E85 so fuel system run cooler. Re...

You will have a bit more HP than me but I'm pushing 190HP with a 1.4L Turbo. Running an older 80" Whirlwind Stump Puller with a 2:1 ratio so motor is only turning 4400-4800... I peak HP and flat line from 4600-4800 with current tune and the baby turbo runs outta air past 4800. Good luck on your buil...

AFI has probably done enough bad business with the airboat world that enough word has spread. If you want Turbo Ecotec then DIY or maybe CBM if you can convince them to let you or someone else tune it vs their stock tunes. If you want NA then TKE make a good 2.4L package.
