Vette TPI for sale

Have an "88 TPI unit I bought a couple of years ago and have no need for. Runners are in good shape with no discernible dents, manifold is complete with fuel rails and injectors, fuel regulator, EGR, misc bolts, long neck water inlet, metal distributor cover. Also comes with the computerized HEI from the car. I need it gone. Asking $250 but any reasonable offer will be considered.

Re: Vette TPI for sale

Would you sell the HEI dizzy (large cap, right) separate? Is it clean and look good, free of corrosion?

Re: Vette TPI for sale

See the word "but" in your post? It negates everything you say before it. Why the hell do I care what somebody else is selling their stuff for? You in the market? Great. If not, shut the hell up. Nobody cares about your lame market research. Funny how you don't mention the unit going for $200 that has had repairs done to threads, doesn't have the distributor cover, and doesn't have the distributor? You didn't want to come off as a jerk yet that's what you did. Epic fail.

Re: Vette TPI for sale

Truly, what makes the Corvette one unique from F body? I thought pre 88's were unique because the EGR valve location for early better aluminum heads but 88-up were the same except for the distributor cover being metal vs plastic on F bodies

Re: Vette TPI for sale

I think they have larger injectors than the 305 units had. Not sure. This one's nice because bolt holes are all bungled up, no welding has been done or needed, the runners are in good shape, etc. Just a nice piece that I would be having ported out if I hadn't have gotten hold of a F.I.R.S.T. tpi.

Re: Vette TPI for sale

Pretty sure I did. Maybe you should check out Corvette Forum and see my ad there and what I was asking for it? Maybe you should just get a life and stop trolling classified ads when you have no interest in purchasing. See post #3 in this thread? That wasn't a private message as you allege. That was made by you in the open forum, so grow up and be a man and admit to your trolling or go get some psychiatric help since you don't seem to have a grip on reality.
