TII parts car for TII swap
i think im going to be buying TII that lost compression on the rear rotor, so the owner just left it. it has 150,000 miles on it. i was going to use all its parts to do a TII swap in my FB with the stock ECU. i have a feeling that a lot of the important parts will give me a hard time, and not run when i build it. is this likely? is it even a good idea? what parts do i need to check or replace? all emmisions aside.
also, if i try and try to get it to run, but wont, will it be much of a waste to convert it to a blowthrough?

Getting a complete TII donor car is BY FAR the best way to approach a TII swap.Youll have everything at your disposal and you can inspect how its all connected before you strip it down.Just be sure to get everything related to the engine before you scrap the shell.Really,itll all fit in a medium sized box you can stash in the corner.Im talking about all the sensors,wiring and control components.
You can also keep the fuel tank and pump if you want to pursue an intank EFI fuel pump like I did.I dont see any reason to go carb/blow through if you have a complete,pre-tuned factory EFI setup.The stock ECU can support 250 flywheel HP easily and wont require any perilous tuning.
Get an FSM to identify all the parts and become familiar with the system.It looks like a mess,but once you can ID all the pieces it becomes a LOT less intimidating.If you decide to delete the smog gear,you can remove a lot of it,but you must retain quite a few key components for the EFI to work correctly.Its imperitive you be able to diecern what parts are junk and what parts are needed.
