[Diy_efi] New User - Chev TBI Conversion question(

[Shannen at grolen.com]

DI>Hi All,

DI>I am a new user to the list and FI.  I want to put a Chev TBI unit into a
DI>1972 Chev 1/2 ton p/u with a 292 straight six engine.  I already have the
DI>fuel tanks with internal pumps from a '87 Chev 1/2 ton.

DI>Can I just grab all of the parts off of a 4.3L or 5.0L TBI engine and hook
DI>it up?

You need to do more research.  Are you going to use a 1, 2, or 4bbl
manifold for your 6 cylinder?  What about tuning?



DI>What challenges are there?

Getting up in the morning has been a challenge the last few days.  <g>

This type of thing is well documented in the archives.  If you start at
diy-efi.org then click on gmecm, then click browse/search article
archives, then click advanced search, you can look through lots of
similar posts.  Some key words might be convert, retrofit, replace carb,
howell, fuel only, and there are probably many others.  Be sure to
search both the gmecm and diy_efi archives together, because the
information is found in both locations.

DI>Is there someone or somewhere that I can get info from with this experience
