    3.0 conversion wiring

    That yellow/light green is one of 3 wires that go from the Air Bag Diagnostic Monitor to the Crash Sensor on the radiator support. By the way; There is a black wire that comes off of the crank position sensor that must be grounded. This black wire connects to a grey wire that in turn grounds...

    That is important. Two of the four mounting bolts for the ICM module can be used to ground the ICM to battery negative. Don't remember which two offhand. Tom

    3.0 conversion wiring

    The SPOUT wires don't run through a sensor. They are just two wires that come together in a shorting plug. You pull the cap off and the two wires are un-shorted, put the cap back on and they are shorted together again. SPOUT stands for SPark OUtput Timing. Tom

    Attempting a SHO swap into an e30

    Well, I had the intake cam heights bass ackward as usual. I thought the 3.0 intake lobes were .5 mm taller. Tom

    3.0 conversion wiring

    When the key is turned to "start", 12 volts is sent to 4 locations on the white/pink wire. One the clutch pedal switch. From there it splits to pin 6 of the ICM and also the starter solenoid. The other two locations are irrelevant. Tom

    3.0 conversion wiring

    Red/ light blue is the trigger for injector number 4 and indeed originates from pin 13 of PCM. The power is supplied to the pink/black wire for two seconds from the CCRM and is monitored by the PCM via pin 5. Tom

    3.0 conversion wiring

    There is a wiring diagram, but I don't have it in PDF form. Also, pin 1 of the PCM (yellow I believe) should be hot at all times. In other words, hooked to positive post of battery (Through a fuse of course) so that the Computer's Keep Alive Memory (KAM) is always ON. Pins 20, 40 and 60, the...

    Kind of hard to tell from here, I can't quite see what you have left over. Anything important?

    The Other Woman on the Dyno Again!

    Sorry guys, I didn't mean to get your hopes up. By yearly check-up I meant Emissions testing. She hasn't been on a real dyno since about 08 where she put down 300/300. More than enough to scare the bejeebus out of me if I let it build boost too quickly. I have her on the pump gas, no nitrous...

    Attempting a SHO swap into an e30

    On the old 3 series it was the diff mounts that were always cracking from the drivers always thinking they had bought a 5 series. There is a thread on here with dimensions somewhere, I'll see if I can find it, it's 112 in the shade here. EDIT: Here it is...

    Attempting a SHO swap into an e30

    I have SHO engines and T-5 with Canfield adaptor, and the Mazda tranny and an A4LD automatic on the shelves in my shop if you need any pics. And the SHO engine, fully dressed is 492 pounds. I have a couple of 3.2's, one with only 4800 miles and a 3.0 out of a special Ford vehicle with only 87...

    Hmmmm? Well curses! It's a link to my Facebook page. Maybe I can build the internet but don't know how to use it. Oh well. Tom

    Attempting a SHO swap into an e30

    The 3.2 came in the automatic cars and were driven more like grocery getters than Honda racers. The intake cams from a 3.0 give you 1/2 mm more lift but in my opinion not worth the trouble. The beauty of the SHO motor (IMHO) is its ability to have torque over a wide range AND a replacement is...

    Attempting a SHO swap into an e30

    Harry, Welcome to the madness. The only transmissions that I know of that bolt up to the SHO motor without the use of an adaptor plate, is the A4LD automatic from Ford and the Mazda M5OD put in the Ford Ranger and Aerostar. Is there a reason you HAVE to have 6 speeds? Because the SHO motor...

    Do you mean the big hole in the middle? That's the bolt that holds the two halves of the plug together. Tom

    3.0 sho engine airboat build

    I'm sure you can. Some sensors just need power coming into them and then the return line is measure by the computer. Some sensors need 12v power to operate but take in a 5v signal and return what's left to the computer. I can make another thread titled, "how to wire a 3.0 SHO motor in an...
