Sounds good to me. I did not know it was that big of a hassel to convert a dual plane, but then I never gave it much thought either. Good info here!
Here is a question for you guys. I have read that it is not critical to have the injectors pointed at the valve, but I have also read that it is most advantagous to do so. I would have to agree with the latter. What say you?
The jury is still out on that one. I asked that same question a while back, since it was the only way EFI would fit under a stock hood: http://www.chevytalk.org/forums/Foru...ML/000338.html

Flareside:
Thanks for the link. I like it over there. I`v only been registered about a month, but that site has so much information on it I get dizzy. I posted a question about the Electromotive unit not long ago ( almost the same time as this thread started ) but I did`nt get too many takers. The reason I asked the last question is because there are so many ways to plumb an IR set up and like you, I have gotten different answers.
:cheers:

I think he is using FAST EFI. Top milled to fit under the stock hood with drop down base.

I have a friend who is an engineer at electromotive. I am currently waiting for a wiring harness for my RX-7 so I don't have to butcher the stock one. (It due out in a couple months).The TECIII is fantastic but not cheap @ 2300.00. There is a new system coming out from a company called AEM. This also is on par with the TEC III but only costs around 1350.00. I'll bet it would also work well in a corvette if the TEC III does. :cheers:

Yep, that's it :yesnod: A Victor Jr. has a level carb flange, and I needed a flange that tapers down toward the front to match the taper of the hood. I milled the top of the manifold to angle it down 1/2". You can see it here: http://forums.corvetteforum.com/zerothread?id=275043

Has anybody figured out if the TEC3 supports wideband yet, and what you get for your $2300?

I only know what is on the web site. I looked the last time you mentioned this but I did not find anything and I have not made any calls yet.

Mr turbo rotary: Where can we find info on this AEM? We are always shopping!

Richard, Try this site http://www.aempower.com/ems.htm I would e-mail them and ask if it would work for your corvette application. :cheers:

I sent them an email about wideband support and I haven't heard back from them yet.

Mr turbo rotary:
Thanks for the link. It looks promising but I`ll do as you suggest. I`m going to get the catalog also.
