Does anyone make a reproduction of the Rochester fuel injection system? I would like to add one to a 65 (NOM) driver but don't want to spend what the real ones are bringing.

I think your out of luck. Dennis

If there were reproductions, they would have brought prices of the originals down. There has been a reproduction distributor, but it sells in the approximate range of originals. To reproduce all the FI parts would be prohibitive.

I might suggest that you "rent" one. That is, buy a nice unit and use it. When, and if you decide that it is no longer wanted, sell it at that time and get your money back. You might gain a little or you might sell at a slight loss, hence the "rental fee."

DZAUTO

Nope.
MANY of the individual parts, ESPECIALLY parts needed for rebuilding a complete unit, are reproduced. But NONE of the major parts, ie plenum, air meter, cone, fuel meter, etc, etc, are reproduced. It would be just too prohibitive.
I'm afraid you're only option is to locate a complete (or nearly complete) rebuildable unit.

How about this from AZ Speed?

NICE..., especially the shape of the top of the plenum; earlier ones were/are sloped at the top front. price is high, but about what i have in my FI to EFI conversion.

EFI is a lot less 'finacky' than FI....

If I am not mistaken, they only make this unit for vortec heads. Or at least that was the case when I last checked on one.

wmf62

that was the case too when i looked at it a few years back...

their website is confusing:

Arizona Speed developed a very popular Superjet system for Vortech heads, available for Ramjet 350, ZZ4, ZZ5 and ZZ383 crate engines. This system provides the early Rochester look with all the features of electronic fuel injection. As an option, our custom "Drop Top" manifold is designed designed for early Corvettes and other applications with low hood lines. This manifold is available in either satin or polished finish.

BUT, the ZZ4 is definately not vortech heads....

Yep, glancing through the web site it still appears that way. But,
the OP says he has NOM, so may have them already or could add them.

did you decide on anything? i noticed the Ariz Speed unit 1) no oil fill tube provision 2) HEI provided, but no tach cable provision 3) would a 375 HP design restrict higher flow? 4) air cleaner recommendations?

might be worth the $$$ to me (even the Vortec part) if the originality was not totally compromised

I lust after this setup.

Me too!

yes, and as i mentioned, a shame that AS&M didn't market much to '57 - '65 owners, i.e. vortec heads, no oil fill provision, wrong distributor, fuel pump and air cleaner outsourced. would make a great kit if complete!
