Have you considered a fuel only computer? If you are happy with your
spark then all you would have to do is use a fuel computer such as a
Haltech F9 or F9A to control fuel delivery. It requires no crank
signal, only a tach signal. All one has to do is run a wire to the
coil. Of course you would also need air temp, coolant temp, MAP and
TPS. I can't imagine a more simple configuration.
In fact, I replaced my mechanical fuel injection because of
simplicity. My F9A is far more simple and easier to adjust/diagnose
than my cars previous K-Jet fuel injection. It has also simplified
my engine layout by removing auxiliary systems that my car used to
have like the closed loop 02 computer, idle control computer, boost
control mechanism, and the thermo-fan switches. I have consolidated
these 5 separate systems (fuel, boost, idle, fan, o2) into one black
box. The Haltech has really simplified my engine compartment.
