Maybe someone converted one to an EFI system. Don't think GM has built an EFI version yet.

Jeffrey,

Did you have to have different tails fabbed up for the exhaust?

Great conversion to the 572's! Can't wait to hear if they remain reliable or not. :D

No. Used the headers and tailpipes that fit on the 500EFIs.

GM has not offered the 572 Crate engines with fuel injection. They offer a low crompression ratio engine, and a high compression ratio engine. They have a few other offerings up their sleeves that they are working on.
