Ecutek for a V8 swap?
I found this discussion on Facebook. The guy said he ran his ls with ecutek. Would this actually work? It seems it would solve the canbus dilemma.

He put a lot more work into it to be able to run it like that. He used all the wiring/sensors from the FA20 and made them work on the LS. So the LS is being run by the FA20 ecu. That is why he was able to use ecutek.

I don't think he ever had a normal intake/fuel system on it. He went straight to carbs as he got them for super cheap.
