<B>Intro</B>
Pulled the engine from my 1992 Land Rover 110 Stationwagon to get to the chassis to make some modifications to fit a SS stainless exhaust system. Decided to take a look at the cam while the engine was out, then took the heads off, then decided it was time for a bit of a re-build, which became a full stripdown and re-build...
I've been wanting to do something to remedy the V8s dislike for water, which isn't ideal in a Land Rover. Originally I intended to replace the Lucus electronic ignition with a Mallory Unilite/HyFire combo I bought for another V8 a few years back. It turns out that getting the HyFire to work with the 14CUX ECM is difficult and cludgy, so I looked to alternatives for ignition, preferably ones that don't need a dizzy. This led to VEMS, which I intend to run wasted spark in the first instance, although COP would be ideal - no HT leads should really help the damp engine problem.
Seeing as I'm looking at VEMS for ignition, it makes sense to rope it in to do fueling as well, even though I don't think there's a huge lot wrong with the 14CUX (at least for my uses).
