78 glc rew build wiring help.

tonycorona · 03-27-2011, 01:05 PM

Doing a rew auto matic in a glc. Got the motor in yesterday with no clearance issues. The starter was tricky against the steering box. It's all good. Used a turbo2 distributor to compensate for the removal of the 2 sensors on the re front cover. used the gsl-se front cover and oil pan.Wondering if anyone has done this and could use some wiring help.
getting a turbo manifold made as we speak to run 1 turbo.Planning on using a stock 93 alternator beefed up to 150 amps if that helps. Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks. Will be posting pics and step by step of the build.

You are using a crank angle sensor? (TIIs did not use a distributer).
I don't think that a TII CAS will wok with the RE fuel injection. You will probably need a standalone.

If so, you will just use the wiring instructions for the standalone.

Please feel free to ask any specific questions, as there is a lot of rotary experience to be found here. (It is difficult to explain the entire process.)
