I'm trying to figure out how to adapt the original tpi fuel lines to run with a carb for an LS1. I assume it would be the same as in the tech article for FI to carb?

I always see people bashing the carb setup on an LS1 and I don't really care to hear it. It's not my car that this is being done to, I'm just helping a buddy out. He already had a street demon carb and got a good deal on an ls1 longblock. So it was more cost effective to use the carb setup. He's got $700 in the intake, ignition box, crank spacer, and flexplate. And buying a worked FI harness at $750or those whereabouts plus an intake/rail/injector/throttle body just doesn't make sense in his case.

 

mallory 4309 and a tpi pump in the tank should do it. Might have to step up to a walbro 255 in tank, I'm not sure where the limits of a tpi pump are on a carb setup.

 

thanks. His car is my old 87 Iroc it has a granatelli 255lph pump in it already. Is the Mallory better than the Barry Grant?

 

you need a return style regulator, he can run whatever one he wants. Aeromotive and barry grant both make quality units, i'd buy aeromotive before a BG setup IMO.

 

im going with aeromotive efi to carb. psi fpr, walbro 255 lph intank and -10 return

 

so you guys are recommending this? http://store.summitracing.com/partde...5&autoview=sku

is there anything that will work as good for less money?

 

mallory 4309 like i already stated is cheaper.
