749 conversion

[chetwagner at uswest.net]

Well, I have finally finished the conversion I have been working on 
for about a year.  I have taken a 730, not a 749, with the syty code 
and converted it to work on a 79 Dodge Omni with the 1.7 litre 
engine.  Nice thing about this engine is that most, if not all of the 
parts, are interchangeable with VW's.  Even the cylinder head bolts 
right into place, no mods.  The only part that I had to make was the 
adapter plate to mount the TB from an 88 Sunbird turbo to the VW 
intake manifold(the same one from the cis engines).  To make a 
long story short, I set the computer to 1 bar, tweaked the injector 
constant to match the injectors (trial and error), messed up the VE 
tables beyond recognition, and went for a drive.  Let me just say 
this:  Oh Happy Days, it actually runs, and good at that.  If anyone 
has any questions, let me see if I can answer them.
