I guess I'll have damn near $10K in mine and it won't be nearly that wild. I don't know, that's a tough call! It's got some mileage on it!

So is the CIS gone and if so, what is controlling the fuel delivery and timing?

It would be tough to do a PPI, so you are really investing $13K+ into an unknown. With 40K miles on a very modified engine, that's a tough sell.

.. really need to look closely at it.... it could be anything.... a 3.2 base with 3.4 pistons.... single? Twinplug?? ...it's almost ALWAYS going to be a Bosch EFI with them or Protomotive if they (either) actually built it..... but normal options include pressure sensing??(though generally not on single turbo) et cet c.. but most high HP engines go twinturbo.... my guess is it's a 400-500 HP rig... pistons... look at headsealing... flamerings? Don't see normal location for MSD or Accel CDI's... so probably singleplug.... probably worht 8-10k... easy.... if not toasted...10-15 if running well.... though 40k on a prototech-motive motor, considering why most folks have them built may be a lot of miles... I've had three...(2 of theirs and one they helped me with)
