Firebird getting better

Sunday I swapped out my injectors for some I bought from a member. And what an improvement ! they are only stock but they don't leak and work. Now I get instant throttle response, and the ride is smooth. It looks like I am going to have to readjust TPS and IAC idle feels real choppy.
The engine bay still looks crappy but I will get to making it look good after everythings working right. And sooner or later I will find a decent seat of seats near Houston that I can afford.

Got any pics?

I'm also making some progress on my Formula. I tracked down a wiring problem and am putting the dash back together after a conversion from LG4 to TPI/350. I still need to swap injectors and install a AFPR...but it's coming along.

Here's a pic of mine:
