CONVERTING MECHANICAL FUEL INJ TO EFI

[lkurek at smtpgate.anl.gov]

     Not a problem....
     
     All you really need to do is set up a TPS (throttle position sensor) 
     and drill and weld in some injector bosses and fuel rails. Assuming 
     you only want to do a basic conversion, this is all you need for an 
     Alpha-N setup. If you wanted to get more sophisticated, you could 
     always fabricate up an idle bypass so you could have IAC control of 
     idle speed...but I wouldn't bother.
     
     Best of luck!

I HAVE A 1955 CHEVY WITH A L88 427 FOR POWER. I WANTED TO GET A
 CROWER MECHANICAL FUEL INJECTION UNIT FOR THE STREET BUT I"VE BEEN TOLD 
 THAT ITS A BIG PROBLEM UNIT FOR THE STREET. SO I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF 
 I'LL HAVE ANY PROBLEMS CONVERTING THE CROWER UNIT OVER TO EFI AS FAR
AS  COST OF PARTS VERSES BUYING AN AFTER MARKET EFI UNIT THAT WON`T 
LOOK HALF AS GOOD AS THE CROWER RUNNER TUBES STICKING THROUGH THE HOOD. 
I CAN DO ALL THE MACHINE WORK.
