Injector choice for 4bbl conversion

Post by Jecsd1 »

I am wondering if anyone knows a good donor vehicle for an injector assembly that will physically bolt to a 4bbl carb manifold. Just trying to get my ducks in a row. Could I use the sensors from the same application, (ECT, IAT)? As I understand it I don't need a MAP because it's integral to the MS module. True? Thanks a million for the help.

The GM TBI units are not a direct bolt on, but there are off the shelf adapters that work great for them. See one in action on our Nova.

Yes - although for some perverse reason, many GM TBI cars didn't have an IAT sensor. The ECU has to guess it from coolant temperature. Bean counters strike again!

True.
