Bummer. I was hoping to see this run on Big Stuff 3. I should have my motec on the way so I can be another odd fire build.

One of the lifters bore need to sleeve which mean I got to take the engine apart.
Every time I get one step forward, something goes wrong taking me backward.

Update
Since I am not confidence I will get the oddfire to work and don’t want to waste too much more money, I decided to build the motor myself what the help from google.
It’s a bit challenging , this was a dry sump engine and I had the main cap machine for an oil pump and shit don’t line up right.
The crank is two piece and I am using the stock oil pan.
The sprocket on the crank is set to retard, so setting the timing chain to 0 degree was a task.
No dip stick so I took a drill to it.
I ditch the 18 degree heads and going with 23 degree, I have headers and turbo all ready.
I think I am done with the long block, waiting for the new intake to get done.
Going to install the engine leaving the stock tran and fuel system for now.
If I have trouble getting it to start and running, I might dump it all and start a new build.

Re: OddFire v6 Blow thru e85
Thanks, I got some more things to straighten out before auto tune.
It backfires during starting / cranking
The timing is retarted 26 degree and moving the distributor doesn't change the timing.
Not much info out there for this 'odd' setup.

Re: OddFire v6 efi e85
Finally got the BS3 and oddfire working correctly, timing is on the spot.
Thanks to everyone on this thread helped and the middle finger to guys that never reply my emails.
I have many hours trial and error, buying parts and take apart to understand how things work. understand why no one wants to give away information free.
Next is a complete fuel system upgrade for E85 and then the transmission, I might go th400.
Thanks
Denny

Congratulations im glad you got this running. As a fellow odd Fire guy I'm glad to see something else besides motec can run the motor.
