kevdonlon,

I'm not aware of anyone converting that specific engine to MegaSquirt. The main issues are the ignition input and control, as the fuel side is pretty straightforward (though you may have to add a fuel pressure regulator on the rail if it was a returnless system).

For the ignition, your options are to figure out what the engine sends/receives in terms of ignition control signals and see if MegaSquirt-MS1/Extra-MS-II supports it, or convert to something that is supported, like EDIS. So it might take a little 'homework'.

Lance.
