Secondary relay module questions
There is a post on CF as well, but I had some questions regarding the module.
in that other post, someone said the module was used 90-92 and 93-95 did no and it was in the ECM.. since the replacement ECM is the same for all years (although Kurt's website only states 90-94) then couldn't the module be eliminated and the wiring/harness/ PROM be made to work without the Relay module? I am trying to understand the logic, if the 90 has the module, but I use a ECM that can be used in a 93 in my 90 and it works, I would think you could change something to eliminate the relay module if needed. Now I could be all wrong ont he relay module as I am going by what I read in another post..

Re: Secondary relay module questions
The secondary injector modules were used for all years. However, the 90 model had a seperate knock module that was later integrated with the ECM. When I had a custom harness made for my 94 LT5 to allow it to run in a 65 coupe the company eliminated the modules and used a relay. They said it would work fine. This appears to make sense since the modules seem to be just an on/off switch. The pulse of the secondary injector is still controlled by the primary injector ground circuit though the ECM. I wasnt confident enough to try this route since I thought the general must have used a more expensive module for some reason. I guess when we cant find any then someone will give it a shot!

Who made your harness? Might need to figure out a different ignition system someday also.

Re: Secondary relay module questions
It is the 9 slot that messes it up for the eDIST. but I know the eDIST would work using the ECM timing.. meanign the ECM timing out would feed the eDIST.
Also Paul, remember, the ignition module fires the 2 plugs, with a new set up, you would have a different ignition so the 2 fires per plug is a non-issue. I will look into it, I am not sure exactly what would work though. I would need to look into it a bit more, maybe this winter
