I'm running a straight gas carbureted flathead. I have it set up with O2 sensors, etc...
I'm looking for a good engine management computer to monitor the vitals......any suggestions ??

Bert, what class are you running? There may be legality considerations depending on class.

Wayno, I think he is just recording, not managing but he is building a Lakester. 

Bert are you looking to computer control the motor or just collect what it is doing?

If he's building a Lakester he's good to go.  :cheers:

   Bert https://computech.com/products/data-loggers/   offers an excellent selection of  affordable data acquisition systems. For O2 read outs there's a collector system or for individual ports they offer a system for that as well.
    We use the system to gather the information after each run we make with our Ford flathead powered race car.
