I'm the OP. I bought a 82 CFI Vette.

If I want any help with my shitbox I'll have to poke around the corvette forums and look for people with my CFI (only available in 1982 and 1984 model years).

Gonna have to LS swap or something, my stock CFI is a boat anchor and at this point since there is no community or aftermarket I think it is time for me to forget it just like everyone else.

poor Buccaneer though. last post was last September, guess he gave up too.

What are you talking about? Cross plane crankshaft V8s are some of the best harmonically balanced engines you can get.

>>14127130
But that's wrong

It's not a boxer, inline 6, V12, or a rotary

It isn't. Again, crossplane V8s are some of the most naturally balanced engines out there.

Crossplane V8s are not naturally balanced, they have an even firing order

probably one for every 3rd or 4th model made.
a shit guess but fuck its depressing.
>>
>>14127662
>they have an even...
They sure do. Just like their flatplane cousins, a 90 degree V8 with opposing pistons sharing journals fire every 90 degree rotation.
The only difference is the crossplane crankshaft places piston assemblies in a way that counteracts second order vibrations in a way the flatplane V8 doesn't.

jokes on you, my shitbox is a 94 Accord, I'll be able to get junkyard parts forever, or at least as long as mexicans are around to race drunk and wreck their Hondas.

There's a reason nobody is talking about CFI anymore. It was shit. LS swap it with a truck engine and have a good time.
>>
I've found the same for 4th gen civics. Seems there are a few people remaining but it's slowly dying as all warehouses are selling the last bits of discontinued parts and the only stuff left is overpriced japan shit. Might just learn how to fiberglass shit and reproduce some stuff.

Not even "enthusiasts" like driving anymore, most of them just take pictures for instagram.
