Hello to all those in the know. I would like some advice on fitting the edis system before I jump on in. Could someone tell me if its possible to fit the edis system to the rover kv6 engine. I'm planning on fitting one of these lumps into a 70s project I have kicking around and was hoping to use this aftermarket system for the ignition as I don't have the fobs and ecu from the donor car. Cheers in advance for any advice and if the answer is favourable I hope to post a new thread asap.

You will need something like megasquirt in conjunction with the Edis.
The edis unit is just an ignition module with fixed spark timing. It needs a megajolt to give you ignition advance, but you need something to drive the injectors too unless you converting to carb, hence the need for megasquirt.

Top grammar tips! Bought = purchased. Brought = relocated Lose = misplace/opposite of win. Loose = your mum

cheapest simplest and most efficient route to get it running I think is to get an Emerald ecu and a plug n play patch loom for the standard engine loom.
not 100% if emerald do this off the shelf, but they have done for the 4 cylinder k"s for years.
reason I say cheapest is you don't need to buy three carbs and a manifold, any trigger wheels or extra parts, all the original kv bits should be configurable to the ecu, will use lots less fuel, more reliable.
