A yew years ago a member on here was talking about making a fuel injection kit to use on a big block. By that I mean he was going to use a GM LS computer, coil and wiring harness. I was just wondering oh far he got with it. I am asking because I am getting ready to put a dodge 5.9 magnum with the factory fuel injection in my dart sport. But got to wondering if anybody used the GM computer etc to run the dodge engine. I just figured the GM computer would be easer to tune for boost etc. Also this is all MIke aka p-Body faults. I saw a pic of a LA engine with coil by plug and want to do that to my engine

You need to change the tone ring to the GM configuration.

I remember that now after you said that. Know anything about if the GM computer will work with the 46RE trans? If not and I decide to do the GM conversion my uncle said he has the early 518 trans I can use.
Also wasn't you the one that talked about selling a kit to add a turbo? If so did you ever come out with a kit? I am really wanting to put a turbo on my 360 next year.

Was just mostly to see if anybody has done it. Also how friendly is the stock dodge with boost. But thanks for the contact info. I will be getting in touch with him soon

Dakota and ram guys have been making 550 to 600 whp on stock magnum short blocks, EQ heads and Ryan tuning with SCT on stock dodge truck EFI system. I believe they are using a GM 3 bar map sensor but Ryan would know all that for sure.
