my 1980 Chevrolet Malibu Wagon introduction

Nice progress, Alfred.
Thanks for sharing the pics. Your wagon has come a long way since you picked it up from the salvage yard. 👍

Very near project. It that 3500 strong enough to hold up to the torque and weight of that wagon?

Alfred, how are you firing the coils? What fuel pump?

BTW - love the wagon - I'd say the heck with the paint, the current patina is GREAAAAAT, and add on a wooshy thing.

Thanks. I'm Running the Megasquirt MS3pro ECU to fire the coils for sequential Fuel injection and using 1990 Chevy Astro fuel sending unit with LT1 in-tank Fuel Pump.

I should've been clearer - what are you using for cam and/or crank triggers?

I'm using the stock vortec distributor as a cam sycn. with sensor and vortec plastic timing cover with crankshaft position sensor just had to replace the stock 4teeth reluctor wheel for a thin 24 teeth reluctor which I bought from EFI connections so I can use double roller timing set.

I'd like to see more pictures of that - I'm envisioning what you have timing cover wise.

Looks like you have a plan though - keep it going 😉

I see what the heck you got going on there 🙂
