>(or anyone)- >Are there many choices for aftermarket FI? How does the cost of it compare to new carbs, any ideas? There are a few choices available for aftermarket FI. The price varies, like everything, on how much you're willing to do / learn how to do yourself. Toby had a good list of links for FI stuff, as I recall. One of the most popular (or at least best advertised) is the CB performance fuel injection, which uses a GM ECM (General Motors, Engine Control Module). I'm not certain which particular one it is (and if anyone happens to have this system, I'd love to find out which ECM model it is), but ~70% of the GM ECMs have been hacked and appear on all sorts of vehicles. www.diy-efi.org/gmecm is a good place to start. If one were to take the time to figure it out, the parts alone would cost a lot less than the $1500 US or so that CB charges. Besides, if you're programming your own chips, you can do really sick stuff like put 2 turbos on your parts car. One of the guys on the GMECM list did that, and can't keep tires under it. P-mail me and I'll look for the link to his page if anyone's interested. I plan on using a GM system on my fastback when I get started working on it again. Should be mid-summer or early fall... I'll have to get the equipment to do chips, and will probably do the fasty before I start on my Suburban. Might be looking for a budget 1600 to use as a "test dummy" while I'm figuring out the programming. Cheaper than potentially melting down my 2L or the 400 CI engine for the 'burb.
