I have searched many many old threads and have yet to find the answers I'm looking for. I've also PM'd a reputable member on here but got no response yet. If any of you would like to deal with me in PM and answer my stupid questions then please PM me.
I have a 1988 245 with lh2.2 and the Chrysler box. It has the 3 pin hall sensor on the distributor. The car will soon be converted to a turbo setup but I have a few questions. I've done this with an lh2.4 240 and it was very easy. I just swapped BOTH computers with turbo 2.4 computers from a 7/9. However, with lh2.2 and the Chrysler box, it's not so easy. Many people say to swap to ezk, but I'm interested in the barebones dead nuts reliable breakerless system. Even if it's a limiting factor in horsepower. Boost is going to stay around stock so I'm not too worried.
Plan is to install the turbo, manifold, downpipe, intercooler and piping, reroute MAF, install 850t injectors..the bolting stuff on part is easy. Here's my concerns,
>I can directly swap a 541 turbo lh2.2 ecu in place of my NA one, with no splicing or any mods necessary. Boom, fuel side done.
>Ignition. I will need to completely rid the car of the Chrysler box and install a breakerless system from a kjet 240. Can someone please explain this system to me? do I need it from a turbo 240, na 240, doesn't matter? I've read that I'll forsure at least need the distributor from the motor (b21f(t)) but what else? I'm curious as to whether or not the breakerless system uses a 'computer' with its setup, or just the distributor.
I'm sure I'm forgetting other questions so I'll update as they come to me. Thanks.
Here's one of the threads I read over and it seems he was being persuaded to go ezk instead of breakerless. Lord athlon said the timing curve is built into the distributor, was he talking about the breakerless setup or the Chrysler box? One would assume he was talking about the breakerless setup and that should negate the need for a 'computer' with breakerless.
