Yes.  I like Bruce's advice.  In addition to Knell's way, I am also talking
to a local friend of mine who has done this slightly differently.  So I
want to understand all angles.

I might be able to do this for the Malibu (not the El Camino, it's not
getting the TBI), for considerable cost.  But if I'm going to put a V8 into
a 240Z I'm going to have to solve this eventually.  That's why I call the
Malibu an EFI mule; I intend to experiment on it.

Doesn't have any of the necessary lines.  So you remove the sender assembly
and machine new holes.

Luckily, the State of California cares nothing about safety (unless you
want to light up a smoke in a bar).  All they care about are emissions and
the Malibu is exempt.

Thanks for the replies.
