Is there a TPI for Dummies Book?
... or something equally easy-ish to read. Right now I know practically nothing and I'd like to learn a thing or two

I agree the "Chevy TPI Fuel Injection swappers guide" is really good. Not really a swappers guide at all and it actually really gets into how the system works. I bought it and learned a lot after I got my 92Z

Chevythunder.com is a great site for TPI info. I have used it frequently. I also have the TPI Insiders Book and the TPI swappers Book.
