modified TBI body/port fuel inj intake combo
Has anyone here ever removed the injectors from a 305/350 or TBI to use it as a throttle body while using it on an Holley open plenum intake with cast-in injector bosses? (I forget the part no.)
Would this be an economical way to get more airflow if one could find a practical way to drive 8 fuel injectors?
Say, converting from an L03 to a mild 400 sbc and T5?
Thanks, maybe this should be in the alternative EFI forum.

Yeah, edelbrock has a kit to convert your tbi system to efi. I'd don't know if anyone ever put it on a f body, it was marketed for trucks.

You should just get an aftermarket TBI intake , and get a nice custom chip made for your set up.

I'm doing this same thing for my LT based 383. I'm using the Hurricane manifold and a modified 454 tbi unit. I'll take pics of it tonight.

Re: modified TBI body/port fuel inj intake combo
I'm going to be using the EBL Flash with the Port mod to run 8 injectors. Easy money lol
Re: modified TBI body/port fuel inj intake combo
Are you certain the 7.4L TBI is adequate? i run one with inj pod and I am seeing 90 MAP. Elevation is 1000 feet. Key on is 96.....

Re: modified TBI body/port fuel inj intake combo
From the calculations I did my engine only needs 683 cfm to turn 6500 rpms so it should be more than adequate for what I'm using it for. Plus I'm doing a "mild" port job to radius the bowls more for better flow so that should give me even more cfm.

Does a Port Mod modify a TBI stock L03 computer, and would all that's necessary to do the above be cheaper than a installing an EZ EFI TBI or Atomic TBI EFI?

Re: modified TBI body/port fuel inj intake combo
Yes, Rbob (who is a goddamn genius) can modify your stock computer. Check out www.dynamicefi.com . I think that you could possibly do this conversion far cheaper than the atomix or proflo setup if you play your cards right.
