My problem was not having the boost referenced timing retard and the water/meth system not being reliable. Right now it is sitting (7-8 years) and needs to be freshened. I have a new Snow water/methanol kit and an MSD 6 Programmable box with MAF sensor to sense boost. New game won’t pan for ignition and boost cooling.
My suggestion to you is to buy the fuel system and set it up and tune it to your current engine. Next, find a new block and start collecting parts for a new short block . You will need a forged rotating assembly, use your heads, use a single plane. Get everything switched over and tune the ECU for boost. Also, if you can fit it use an intercooler. I would but I don’t have room on the front of my E-body ‘cuda.
