Swapping the short block with FA20 heads just seems like the wrong way to go about it to me. Complete FA24’s with transmission(also supposedly improved) are under 7k. Seem’s like it would be easier to go that route and work out what needs changed so the ECU can read the sensors it needs to run. If I had a bigger budget I’d have a complete FA24 in my garage right now. We already know about 99% sure that it is using the same signal type as the 17’+ cars for cam and crank position. Merging the engine harnesses, or building new crank and cam reluctor along with swapping to the FA20 crank sensor(pre 17’ cars) seems like it would be less intrusive.
