The FOUR Megasquirt Rover V8 MS1X Kits all are 'Engine Specific' and contain everything required for a complete installation.
When we say 'Engine Specific' - it means that every part is designed to fit the Specific V8 Engine version in question - Perfectly !
Hate wiring.... (Most customers do !) ? - Then you will love these kits - Especially the MS1X Wiring loom !.
Looms also come complete with their own built in 'Relay' & 'Fuse' box, plus a 'Master Fuse' too, giving serious protection.
All MS1X Kits have a professionally made Plug'n Play wiring loom, with only 7 wires to connect - these are listed below.
Your 'Switched Live' - We would recommend this is to your 'Ignition Switch' (Details in the Instruction Manual).
Fuel Pump 'Positive' wire. (If you are converting from a 'Carb' system you will need one of our High Pressure Fuel Pumps.)
The MS1X Looms Main 'Battery Positive' cable - Which goes to your 'Battery Positive' Terminal.
Then the MS1X Looms Main 'Negative' cable, Bolts onto the rear of your Cylinder Head.
Lastly, there are then 3 coloured wires for you to connect to your 'TPS' (Throttle Position Sensor)
Everything else is via Brand New fully labelled Plugs.
When you have done the above - That's it - Your new Megasquirt MS1X Wiring Loom installation is finished !.
The 4 Differing MS1X Kits are dependent on your V8 engine variant - Identified below should you be unsure.
'V Belt' Engines are easily identified having more than 1 x Belt on the front - 2 sometimes even 3.
'Serpentine' Engines have just one Wide 'Grooved' belt that wraps around every pulley, also these have a Distributor & a Silver Plenum
'GEMS' engines are also 'Serpentine', but have no distributor, and also have Black coloured Plenums
'THOR' engines have 'Banana' Shaped Inlet Manifolds on the top of the engine
