Fabricated manifold, TPIS 1250cfm monoblabe throttle body, 42lbs/hr injectors, aeromotive pump, filters and regulator.
Love the versatility and performance. Don't think I would go back to a carb.

With my lumpy race cam I don't know as I could switch to a fuel injected system, plus my rebuilt engine may be a bit too loose for a stable system needed. It would be nice for the benefits but may be a headache to keep operating properly and not worth the money in the end. just my 2 cents..

Still thread stealing, kind of...
What did you do about the Corvette tail housing tranny mount. I have a 91 Corvette 700r4 (actually have the whole TPI engine/ECM/ harness/tranny sitting in my basement as I type) and am researching options for mounting the rear of the tranny. I know I'll have to shorten drive shaft.

I always scrounge together used GM stuff to make the fuel injection system. I have installed with the GM TBI, LT1 and LS1 stuff. Like the others, I wouldn't go back to a carb either.
For guys planning EFI with an auto O/D transmission, put aside planning for a 200-4R or 700-R4 and think about using the 4L60e instead. It's very nice being able to set the shift curves and converter lockup curves on the computer screen. the upshift and downshift through each gear as well as the converter lockup and unlock for each gear are adjustable on a curve using throttle position and speed. You won't regret the choice one you've tried it. I'll never use a valve body automatic again.

Auto part art! Rick's Stainless tank with Walbro 400 liter/hour internal pump.
This is obviously not for my C3 but rather my 70 Chevelle. I have a VetteWorks EFI tank that is going in my 71 stingray with the internal F-body pump. I'd hate to hide such a beauty behind a spare tire carrier!
