So I posted about getting maybe a MS2 or MS3 Pro engine management system for my 89 GTA when someone suggested adding a crank trigger and LS Coils. Can anyone suggest any good articles to read about the conversation? I searched on here but no dice.

 

Thats going to be a fair bit of wiring work. There is not on off the shelf solution for that, although some of the MS3 pro stuff gets close. Not sure if you will find a how-to on it. You can read through the Msquirt manuals to get some ideas of how it will work.
Do you have a specific question ?

 

 

OK, so to run a coil-near-plug setup like an LS you would need to mount some kind of crank trigger wheel (most likely a 36-1 or 60-1) To the balancer. Then need a pickup to read that wheel (VR or hall). That pickup goes to whatever ECU is going to run the system. Also may need a cam sync trigger (SBC Vortec dizzy). Then need to mount and wire the individual coils, and wire them to the ECU.
