Turbo "S71" Olds Engine Build Video BTR Performance Part 9

This is part 9 in a multi-part series covering the custom 422 cubic-inch stroker engine build performed by master engine builder Bill Trovato at BTR Performance for our turbocharged 1971 Olds project called the "S71". In this chapter, Trovato takes us through the process of installing the MSD Pro-Billet distributor that has been modified by FAST to work with the FAST XFI fuel injection system. Although this video series features and Olds engine, the valuable, race-proven techniques shown by Trovato apply to any performance engine build.

Gas and diesel blocks were the same basic casting. Diesels don't build manifold vacuum, so a vacuum pump was needed to run the a/c vacuum stuff. Vacuum was also modulated on the diesel injection pump for the automatic trans vacuum modulator. The vacuum pump went where the gas engine distributor normally went.

The diesel's "lift pump" (which pulled fuel from the tank for the injection pump) went where the normal gas engine's fuel pump went.

Why does a diesel block have a hole for a distributor?
