      Well then I wonder how you guys would like a V8 DIS setup that works on any V8. Been working out some bugs for last few years and so far my friend who has a transport company has had one on his truck for almost 60k miles with zero issues.
      I have been working on it with both a GM DIS module, with and with out cam sensor and standalone is almost finished.
      We have his truck set up with LT1 intake and did away with stock EGR mess, much like the old modified LT1 intakes had done but we used different sealing method.
      Still working on crank sensor packaging, been through 20 different brackets as we use dual sensors with GM module. Reason for module version is computer feedback and it can sense and fire up in 180* of crank rotation.
      I started working on this idea after Vince sent me an LT1 intake. Now SBC will use a stub shaft similar to LT unit and still working on TC cover mounted cam sensor, my buddy's is actually hooked to stub.
      So far we are not seeing any issues with cam timing, and we also developed a way to "allow for" or take up TC slack/wear.
      His truck is 5 speed so he seemed to stretch them so we used a set up similar to old 3.8 Buick TC tensioner.
      So far no issues, but then I have put hundreds of thousands of miles in SBC TC set and if using quality parts they generally come out in fine shape.
      Ya know the hard part is not having a garage at home to work out of. Makes prototyping a bitch.
      The one issue I have is getting certain GM plugs for module, 3 are easy but one is a bitch to find!
      Oh and wire packaging is SWEET!
