Cruising around Mike Davis' site I found the following.....

I just installed one of those kits last weekend. Works great, although I've think that Street & Performance <www.tunedport.com> sells a kit for a lot cheaper than the $50+ that Summit or Jegs sells the Accel kit.

Yup, it's major cash for the Accel kit. S&P sells a cheaper version that caps the fuel rail and plugs the injector hole, can't recall how much but it's way less than $50.

I have the S&P version, and first, it isn't a kit. YOu have to buy the runner plug, and the fuel rail plug seperatly. And frankly, you get what you pay for. My runner plug is just a round plug, thats it. It has no means of fastening it to the runner, I had to RTV it in place. Notice the Accell one has a bracket to hold it in place, this is GOOD. If I ever put a supercharger on my car, I'm sure that "glued in" plug will pop out. Very bad design. For both pieces it was like $30, I'd rather spend the extra $20 for the whole "kit" from Accel if I had to do it again. Just my $.02

still have my cold start inj. on my bird but, was thinking of just buying the fuel rail plug is it an easy to find size and thread or do I have to buy a special one?. I already have the 89 runners so I don't see a problem there.

For 50 clams, I can live with the cold start injector.
