TBI for Buick V6 ODD-FIRE

[CSH-HQ]

>> This project has to do with running a Chevy 4.3 L  TBI on a Buick Odd-Fire.
>> This is a 1976 231 Engine with a HEI dist with a vacume advance
>> It has been done with Buick Even-Fire engines.

>The 1976 engine can mechanically take all the modern EFI 3.8L FWD stuff,
>so why not graft the intake, electronics, etc from a newer mid 80's
>engine on the RWD block.  Works fine.

Fred: 
You can't just reconnect the injectors/ignition wires to go from odd to even 
fire.  The difference is the crank has shared journeals vs split pin ones.
So you have to trade cranks.  Then there is a major head design change that 
accurrded during the odd fire years.  
  So depending on his heads, the intake may not work.
  None of the electronics will fire anything other than once ever 6th ign 
pulse right.
