Well, you still didn't mention what you want. : )  So I'll throw the
ball back to you.  The easiest thing to do is get an efi system from a
junkyard car.  You'll be able to get all the lines, brackets,
incidentals that you'll need.  Throttle body is the easiest, tuned
port is a little tougher, and an OBDII compatible system would
probably be the toughest.  For a first time conversion, to get a taste
of efi, a tbi swap using a 1227747 ecm is probably the way to go.  But
there's no real rule for this.  Look through the archives located at
ftp://diy-efi.org/incoming/ and you'll see plenty of info about chip
reprogramming, efi swapping, and more.

There's tons of stuff on the web, ya just gotta decide how much work
you want to invest and what the point is, ie driving the car or being
able to say "I built the whole danged thing meself."
