wanted, 450 fuel chip/advice
Discussion
Ive a 93 400, and a 4.6 engine sat in the garage wanting a new home. the mechanics i understand, but not yet the ecu and fuelling
n
Is there a simple way of just using a 450 fueling chip and plugging that into the current ECU? what else might i need to look at
Ive not looked into this aspect at all yet, so apologies if i am talking nonsense, but thought id ask while im sat at work bored for 5 mins

The biggest difference between the chips is the airflow scaling, as bigger engines draw more air than smaller ones. I do have a 3.9, 4.6 and 5 ltr chip, but its going to be a case of suck it and see, altough TVR power have the full range to match the TVR tuned engines and they where about £70 last time I looked.
Pretty standard Std rover rebuild, with a very close to tvr spec cam and springs, with some inlet and exhaust port gasket matching and a little blending around the ports to remove the lumps and bumps, but nothing drastic.
So im hoping that a tvr 450 fuel map will be pretty close and a good place to run in till i can get a full map done, but will need to check the afr etc before we run it too much
I was heading just to do a cam, chain lifter and spring replacement on my 4.0, but a friend had a good 4.6 block, half way through ported heads, , and rotating assembly that would be a shame to waste,

From what i have heard TVR power do not remap the 14cux but do have a very large cardboard box full of chips.They stick your car on the rollers and find the closest match..
Why not try and get a second hand Mark Adams chip then you can send it away to him with your engine spec..if its not any where near.Think thats about £70 once you pick up a chip..
