So both FC and FD style worked, but you're going with FC to get the vb921's out of your megasquirt case?

I don't know anything about the mounting holes for the coils on the FB, I'll have to go outside and check my roomates car when I get home so I can figure out what you're talking about

Exactly. I already use twisted pair there to control the HEI7 wit no problems. The holes in the left inner fender liner for the coils seem to allow access to air that is not outflow from the radiator. I will be fabbing something up to check my theory. I do experience IATs well past 150 - No Good!:

Yeah, tofuball and I at the current IAT sensor location in his car have hit due to heat soak from the exhaust pipes... we're going to move it over to the stock manifold location and see what happens. We were experimenting with various different locations just to see what would happen.

Question, is there something you can pull off with the MS that would open the 5th and 6th ports when you take the air pump off.

tofuball and I are trying to come up with ideas for that. We're going to try a motor of some type, with the megasquirt turning on a relay that turns on the motor, which opens up the aux ports via a cable.

We also tried an air pump for the air-ride suspension on a cadillac, along with a pressure switch, and we ran 2 of the extra outputs from the megasquirt to an extra circuit, which turned the Aux ports and VDI solenoids on and off. The pressure switch just turned off the electric air pump when it got to 5 psi. This worked well enough, but the air pump was kinda bulky.
