Default 525 efi help

I am trying to convert a gen 6 502 mag mpi to 525 efi fuel injection set up i am wondering if anyone has done this before and if you have to use the trigger system from mercury or can it be replaced with a msd trigger system.I have a 525 computer and wiring harness and cool fuel system for it but was thinking of running a a 1000 pump instead of the cool fuel becouse of no fuel pump boss is there anyproblems with doing that also thanks for any help john

You have everything less the noted items.... Just find some MERC T/O and install them. It will expedite your installation. I just sold what your looking for about 3 weeks ago. I will keep an eye out.

Are you cloning a 525?

There is two different wiring harnesses a10 pin and a 14 pin
What one do you have? Also do you have the cam positioning dist?
I'm in the middle of doing this same project myself.
There was three different set ups for cam, crank position sensors,
Pm me your # and I will pass on the info I have if you would like.

I'm doing this same conversion and need to know how to install the trigger wheel to balancer. what is the proper "phasing"? the teeth are spaced differently in 3 locations. 1 of 3 positions is right. anyone know which one? thanks, Tom
