I have a complete throttle body injection off of my buddy's 87 camaro with the 305 V8 I am gonna use on this build. In case you guys havent noticed, carbs are junk. I am not going to run carburetor junk on this build. It WILL BE TURN KEY EFI DEPENDABLE . I am going to mount the ECM in the cuddy cabin so it stays dry (after i fix the crack in the hull hopefully). IT WILL BE A MONSTER. Wait until you hear the lope from my 194/203 115lsa cam. This engine is gonna pull so much vacuum at idle it will suck the panties right off my old lady if she gets to close to it.

yep,efi is the way to go,who needs forged crankshaft,hyd roller cam or good flowing cyllinder heads,all you need is efi,it,s so much better than any carb and can even save your engine from detonation.im looking at an efi setup on ebay from a 1985 cadillac seville.i was going to bid on a efi unit off of a v6 camaro but it,s not in the budget,afterall,im not rich!

But you are a bit slow and have trouble with reading comprehension, not to mention spelling. I have plenty of money, again if you look at the parts I have utilized its apparent I'm not the average budget guy by any means, I just don't spend it on whiskey tango pole barns... I live in Scottsdale in a very large home, you live in Illinois. Enough said.
