Official LT-8 Dumb ? Thread (installation)
I don't even have my EMS yet and I have alot of dumb ?'s. Anyone else that has dumb ?'s can also ask them here but,........It has to be dumb
After looking at the wireing diagram on brandon's site...........here---->http://www.br7racing.com/downloads/LT8-FC-Diag.jpg
I want to make sure I got it all right.
#1 A wire goes from #86 on the fuel pump relay to the pink wire on the L coil & then to both TAN wires on the #1 T coil? Is that right? Is that 12v power going to or from the coil?
#2 How does my MSD 6a wire into the L coil now?
#3Where does the GREY wire on the #2 T coil go?
#4 It says the yellow is tach out........out to where, the gauge?
#5 Is fused 12 volts always going to the lt-8 & the injectors, even when the car is off?
#6 On the CAS, Both the white wire & the white w/the black stripe wire go to ground?
I don't have the harness/female plug for the air temp sensor. Does it matter what prong the two wires go to? ( have them backwards) Same for the water temp.......
That's it.........for now.

This is how the factory does it, and how other aftermarket systems seem to be done also.

That's why I said to not worry about it until then - it's pretty intuitive once you're holding it and looking at the pre-labelled harness.
