Ford TFI ignition
Hi all
I'm gathering info on a future throttle body/efi upgrade for my pinto
I've hit a snag with my dizzy, i'm planning on using a megasquirt n spark and tfi dizzy from an injection sierra.
Anyone done anything like this before?

Adrian,
Have you considered ditching the dizzy and going with the flow EDIS style?. I ran this on a pinto early last year. Have a look in my photo section -
towards the end. As per the avatar, I'm about to fire up on MsnS-extra^2 (home brew extra mods for Duratec).
Cheers,
Colin

Hi colin
I might go edis if i cant sort out tfi, prob is i've got everything for tfi and it will be very easy to swap
Just thought tfi would be simpler

Supposedly the MSnSE is setup for TFI.
Have you seen the details here

Get a toothed wheel made up that will fit on the front crank pulley. Then just fab up a bracket for a sensor.
Bill Shurvington has these for Crossflows ; I'm sure it'll be possible to adapt one to a Pinto.
