Thank you Budman.
Does the TPI setup just bolt right onto the existing engine? What vehicles can you get them out of?
Please post more pics. I know I've seen a red setup with dual air filters. Who has that?
Thanks

Well, I did mine some ten years ago, so it's an olde install, but then the engine was changed to a 4 bolt '89 truck block with factory style roller, ZZ9 cam and headers, and so forth....
I have a site, mentioned in the bio referances somewhere in here....think it's still active....
some years ago, I upgraded to a opened up larger runner system....

What else is needed besides the ecu, manifold, wiring harness, mass airflow, waterneck, dist., coil, runners, plenum, sensors?
Will I need a new electric fuel pump to up the fuel pressure? Anything else?
Thanks

vehicle speed sensor.
What year do you have? Cars equipped w/ a lockup 350 already have one (it's on the back of the speedo w/ a little cable running to a blue or yellow box, it's tucked behind the dash ...in the area of the headlight switch), if you don't have one painless sells one you can install between the mech. speedo cable.

I have just the controller (missing the rest of the stuff, I just got started)...
I'm looking into:
www.megasquirt.info
If you go on the forums there, the admin has a C4 with it. They even have it controlling spark timing as well...let me know if you have questions, also, that site has a ton of FI info...
