|

So I was parusing craigslist this morning, and I went looking for something radical for my car. A new Mechanical Fuel Injection system!
I found one that I thought would be suitable for a decent price! it does need some work though.
Picked it up for $120. Came with the fuel line, and a Holley Street Dominator Manifold for an Oldsmoblie 350. _________________

I was hoping in some slim fashion that you had knocked your head on something and were actually posting about an old school mechanical injection!
Still cool none the less.  _________________

| I have a barely used (200 miles) Holley 4Di Projection System. If you're looking for some nice fuel delivery that bolts onto a square bore carb manifold then PM me. |

Like maybe a Corvette 327 / 375hp mechanical FI?! Oldschool and badass!  _________________ '86 Trans Am - 5.0L TPI - LT1 cam - 700R4 - WS6

allegedly its a 650cfm. I haven't run the numbers off the main body or the fuel bowls to see what it really is. _________________

Talk about out dated FI. Might as well go with a Volvo CIS... |

That looks EXACTLY like what I have. 650 DP Holley with chrome dual feed line. I have 4 corner idle though, doesn't look like you have all of them. I'm thinking about cutting the choke horn off and radiusing all I can. I got a 1" aluminum square/spread bore adapter so I can run it on my stock manifold too. _________________ E30

Does that make it bad for some reason? What exactly do you think it can't do well? |

Edlebrock 600. I'm gonna sell the intake/carb with the braided stainless fuel line pretty soon here, and ARP intake bolts, for a pretty sweet deal.
something perfect for TBI guys who want to go carburated. _________________
