Firstly i apologise for the thread if it offends.

I am just finishing getting everything together for my TD to 3.9V8 swap in my 90.

I have a kit of parts i have assembled but need a sanity check from more wizened members.

I have:-

3.9 V8 with EFI and manifolds

Flywheel

Clutch kit

LT77 From V8 disco

loom from a donor RRC

Anything else needed before i disable my 90 for the swap?

Cheers
 
speed transducer interia switch to kill fuel pump! speedo cables tune resister if you are not running cats?
 
Sorry to go off on a slight tangent, but may be relevant anyway.

Vougese39,

Am I right in thinking that lambda sensors were only fitted with cats? (1992/1993ish) and, if the cats are subsequently removed, would you recommend leaving the lambdas out? (and swapping tune resistor for non cat one) and running 'open loop' ,or still keep them fitted? I presumed that closed loop would be better, but I've been wrong before!

Also, I've done a similar conversion, and didn't use the speed transducer. Now, she runs just fine, but would fitting it give any noticable gains to performance or consumption?

I dont have an inertia switch either, not because I want to burn to death, but I guessed that the combination of a 90, and a V8, might lead me to drive a little more enthusiastically whilst off road, and possibly trip it every 5 minutes. What do you think? Am I going to burn?

Dave.
