Warning long post:
I have been lurking on the EFI forum for a while and was hoping if you guys would help me.
I am an race engine builder of old and have worked on everything from Topfuel and blown
alcohol rails to Pro gas, and realize from my lurking that I'm clueless to this electronic
stuff. For once I feel pretty much lost in a field I usually feel comfortable in.
I'm hoping you can help me with a project I'm trying to build. What I have are two engine
(2100cc VW, and 190 C.I.. Corvair) both converted for aircraft use. I'm using a Ellison
throttle body type injection system designed for aircraft use and expensive but good. I
want to build a fuel injection system that's simply, light, reliable, and inexpensive that
I could build for each one of these engines.
But I don't know where to start I see all this MAF, VAF, DFI, PWM stuff and I'm again
lost. I would like some help with this and wondered if you guys would be willing to help
me or point me in the direction of someone that could or a good book or place to start.

I have collected a few web sites on FI and wondered if anyone of you might send me your
library of sites so I can start this process. Digital seems the lightest and least complex
from today's technology, any thoughts?

Any and all help will be greatly appreciated!
