Megasquirt V8 - For all THOR 'Serpentine 4.0 & 4.6 V8 Engines

THOR Trigger Wheel Kit

The THOR 4.0 and 4.6 all have the same Crank Pulleys - having 2 x M8 threaded bolt holes on the crank pulley circa middle position on the flat.

Thor Trigger wheels, like our other Trigger Wheels are CNC cut and 5mm thick, specifically designed for the THOR Pulleys, giving superb reliability via its
Strength & Quality of signal even when in bonnet deep mud !.

The 'Slots', as with our other Trigger Wheels, allows fine adjustment to aid setting timing correctly and compensation just in case you don't, around +/- 9 degrees,
sometimes needed due to the Crank Pulley Design on these not actually having a TDC indicator !.

Kit contains CNC Trigger Wheel, CNC Steel 'Spacer' (in case you machine off too a tad too much off the Pulley), CNC 'Locking Ring', and 2 x special 'Flange Head
Self-Locking 8.8T Bolts' to mount to the Pulley. You may need to run a Tap down to clear dirt and rust from the 2 x M8 threads !.

Note : A small amount of machining is required to the rear face of the Pulley to allow the Trigger wheel to fit correctly.
If needed we offer a machining service of £25 Plus return P&P.

Easiest route is to ring and discuss, post up your Pulley (we suggest RM special Delivery) and we can machine and return along with your order - saving on shipping.

THOR Twin Coil Pack Bracket assembly EDIS

As you may have read - we specialise with our Kits with the Ford G1 Coil Packs.

We like these due to the fact they will run under water. However, we have been asked by numerous customers to make our Coil Pack Bracket Kits to take
the Later Coil Units sometimes used in MS2 and MS3 applications which is common on modern VWs Audi Skodas etc P/Ns : 032905106E 032905106B.

We have now made our new 'Adapter Plate Kits' for these to now be used on ALL of our existing Coil Pack Kits.

Note, these are a ADD ON Kit to the Coil Pack Bracket Kits themselves, oh, and we do NOT supply a Coil !.
The Kit comes with 2 x adapter plates, Tower Spacers bolts washers etc everything you will need to upgrade.

THOR Twin Coil Pack Bracket assembly - VAG

On both the 4.0 & the 4.6 THOR V8s original ignition system they can have 2 x 'Types' of Coil Pack Brackets

The 1st is around 14" long & has FOUR Coil Packs, each having 2 Terminals - These units are NOT recomended for Megasquirt Installs
These units proved troublesome - Even by Land Rovers Standards - and where replaced and upgraded to the '2nd Type'.

The '2nd Type' is a more 'square' unit, which has TWO Coil Packs, each Coil having 4 x on each.

For an VAG Install, you can use 'Type 2', and a set of our adapter plates, if you however have 'Type 1' - then you need this Kit,
(which also has adapter plates) to convert over to the later version and then be able to fit your VAG Coil Packs.

This 'Conversion' Twin Coil Pack mounting kit has every nut screw bolt washer spacer needed for simple professional quick
quality installation, although the inlet manifold may need a small tweak of 2 to get it to fit eactly, even 'inlets' vary !

THOR Coolant Temperature Sensor Conversion

The Megasquirt conversion does not use the Complex THOR CTS (Coolant Temperature Sensor).

Our unit is a direct replacement, using the existing threaded hole, and is correctly calibrated for the Megasquirt ECUs.
The picture shows THOR coolant Temperature Sensor and then our new Sensor in its place.

** This Kit is supplied in our MS1X & MS2X THOR Full Kits. **

THOR Inlet Manifold Coolant Take Off Pipe Conversion Unit

The Thor engines have a weird 'Take Off Pipe' (which often causes water leaks) on the Inlet Manifold, and is not normally at a 'helpful' angle on conversions.

This unit replaces the standard unit, giving far more flexibility for the hosework especially if this is an engine transplant getting rid of that weird
pipe is a huge bones, plus these existing tube are known for leaking .

ADue to the leak issue we measured the hole and when the units were CNC machined we made them a tighter fit. Comes with a new 'O Ring' and is a much better
fit ... and boy won't you know it when you push these home into place !.

** This Kit is supplied in our MS1X & MS2X THOR Full Kits. **

THOR Manifold Air Temperature Sensor Conversion

The Megasquirt conversion requires a correctly coded MAT sensor.

The sensor we supply shown here can also be screwed straight into our AFM replacement tubes which are listed further down below

** This Kit is supplied in our MS1X & MS2X THOR Full Kits. **

THOR Thermostat Conversion Kit

THORs engines have a hugely complex external and rather expensive Thermostat "Thing" in the bottom hose !.

Kit ontains a CNC Milled and passivated plate which converts the THOR Inlet Manifold to the more 'traditional' Rover V8 Thermostat Housing Unit (NOT supplied).

This allows the use of a more standard top and bottom hose.
The Kit comprises of a special CNC Laser cut + Machined adapter plate, all bolts, 2 bolt housing gasket.

The centre hole being a thermostat plate with 19mm hole should give 80-85 degrees running temp.

NOTE : This will NOT work with the A/C in Place - Remove A/C and then add a 4.0 Serpentine Non A/C Belt.

** This Kit is supplied in our MS1X & MS2x Full Kits. - Better still Upgrade to the full Ali Thermostat Kit **

THOR Fuelling System Part 1 Pressure Relief Valve

THORs engines have a rather expensive wildly complex fuel pump, which is 'In Tank' and ECU Controlled.

This kit allows the fuelling to be fitted to a conventional High Pressure Fuel Pump (we do a suitbale one see 'Part 2' and, is not only fully adjustable
for pressure, buts has a guage so you can always see the running fuel pressure.

NOTE : The THOR engines fuelling run at 52 PSI, which is very different to the Earlier Hotwire systems.
This kit is complete with a Adjustable PRV Unit, A Passivated Mounting Bracket with All bolts washers etc, High pressure fuel Hose,
and a solid Brass 3 Way 'T Piece' plus all fixing to mount PRV to bracket, and ciomes with Full Fitting Instructions.

THOR Fuelling System Part 2 High Pressure Fuel pump 120 PSI

This is a Classic (early type) RR 3.9 EFI High Pressure Fuel pump assembly.

Brand New OEM and will output up to 120 PSI and suitable flow for all V8s, but MUST have the PRV above (or something similar) to control the
fuelling to a regulated 52 PSI.

These unit are chosen as they are robust reliable and man enough - One of these powers my 5.2V8, Simple to Fit (5 bolt / screw fitting), a 2 wire
connection - and cheap !. Easy to lengthen (swap the hose for longer, or shorten steel tube to shorten).

NOTE : This NOT part of the standard THOR Kits and is an Optional Extra

THOR AFM replacement unit for MAT sensor AND For PWM Control

This is a AFM for the Thor Unit allowing fitment of our MAT sensor and additionally then links to the PWM controller kit( Below) giving PWM Control. The AFM Unit is fitted between the Plenum Entry and the Air Filter.

This is used with the above unit to give full and programmable PWM via 2 wire S/H PWM Unit (suppiled) with 2 x new hoses to connect to Engine and AFM tube,

complete with Engraved Passivated mounting plate, Stainless Hose clip.

This will immeadiately work with our standard ECUs current or past, without any additional electronics or programming required.

** This Kit is supplied in our MS1X & MS2X THOR Full Kits. **

THOR Plenum Throttle Position Sensor Plug Kit

The Thor Engine uses a different TPS (Throttle Position Sensor) to the Hotwire and Flapper Versions.

On the THOR engines the Plug that connects the TPS to the engine loom is part of the main engine loom, and thus is often missing.

This is a brand new replacement 'Male Plug Kit' with 3x grommets and 3x Pins to be able to connect your new megasquirt V8 Loom to the THOR Plenum TPS Unit.

** This Kit is supplied in our MS1X & MS2X THOR Full Kits. **

THOR Throttle Cable for Fitting THOR 4.0 and 4.6 Engines to Land Rover 90 or Defender Accelerator Pedal

When you fit a THOR engine to a Land Rover 90 or Defender the old throttle cable is not going to fit the Thor linkage.

This Kit is avaialble in 2 options, choose which is correct for you !

Option No 1 - This is the bracket, all the fixings and also a brand new throttle cable. Choose This kit if you still have the bracket the actual cable sits in (see Picture 2 the gold bracket)
Option No 2 - This is the bracket, all the fixings and also a brand new throttle cable PLUS the 'Gold' Bracket in Picture 2. These brackets are often missing when engines are bought !!!

THOR Accelerator Cable Kickdown Bracket

Oddly, when you see THOR 'Top Ends' avaialable for sale they are missing this bracket !.

Its because the cables attached can break easily, so they remove the bracket with them, its one of the odd ball problems we have found !.

Hence panic is over... this is a replacement bracket, as Land Rover do NOT sell this part on its own !!.
