What do I need for this swap? & MPG++
What do I need for this swap? & MPG++
Ok...
I've got Crossfire injection right now, which from what I gather, is a TBI intake?
I want to get a TPI setup for it, but there are a few issues I have.
1) I have a functional cowl induction hood. I'd like to get one of the normal ones with the "vents" at the front. Would that be better for me, anyway?
2) If I were to go to a junkyard and find a TPI, what do I need to pull? just the intake? or do I need stuff from the computer, or anything like that?
3) How much should I pay for one from the junkyard?
And..Gas mileage...mine sucks. What can I do for it? would TPI be best for me in this respect? or would I be better off some other way? My timing is set at 6* (stock, I believe), IIRC, so that shouldn't be an issue, though I'll check it this week when I get my hands on a light...
Thanks for any help on these matters
Oh yeah..if it's not in my sig
1983 T/A
305
