Correct Lambda gear for setting up carbs?

Hi,

Following previous posts on a AF gauges etc, please could someone advise if the unit that I have found on ebay would be the correct one for my needs?:

AEM Wideband AFR Lambda UEGO Gauge - Complete kit | eBay

I have an 8v Vauxhall engine running on 919 Fireblade carbs with standard points ignition and would like up the carbs with out using a rolling road. (For cost reasons) There is no ECU on my car, so I wondered if the ebay Lambda kit would be ok to do the job?

I have access to some private land to run the car on to do the setting up.

Thanks in advance.

Matt

It certainly looks like it should do the trick.

That looks like a complete kit - bear in mind you will need to get the boss welded into your exhaust in order to fit the lambda sensor.

I used a JAW setup, which is similar but home made, to set up my carbs and it worked fine. I could probably get some improvements by getting it set on an RR, but it works well enough.

The UEGO AFR is good... all the magical mystery stuff is all located within the gauge so nice and tidy,, the Innovate job has a lot of wires and a stupid control box.
Anyways as your on bike carbs most RRs wont go near them so best to get the fuelling sorted your self and maybe go to RR to get the cam timed in, hard to tell what cam adjusting does when blazing down the city bypass!
If you ever go to megajolt the uego has a 0-5v output that can be wired in to datalog.

Thanks again

I've got one on my s2000 engine and it works well! It's a tidy unit too and looks the part.
It also says poo on the screen on start up for some reason?
