I'm sure this will get moved to the C3 forum...No, 81 had a Q-Jet with elec. idle air control...82 & 84 had the Crossfire ...

You should probably post this in the C3 section, but in answer to your question.....the Crossfire injection system only came out in 1982 and 1984. There were no 1983 Corvettes, hence, the skip in years.
The 1981 had a carb on it, but it was an ECM controlled carb. Not a very good/reliable system. Keeping the electronic carb properly functioning was a pain in the butt. There were only 2 types of Crossfire systems.....the ones that worked, and the ones that were a nightmare.

I've got a spare throttle body w/IAC valves for an 82 Crossfire. If you are interested in it, send me a pm and maybe we can work something out.
