    Fuel Injection Retro Fit

     



    I remember seeing a fuel injection kit that comes with a throttle body that looks just like a carb. The fuel bowls hide the ectronics and the injectors. It is good for up to 400 or 500 HP and comes with the fuel pump, computer, etc. Does any one know who makes it? I do not remember where I saw it or who amkes it. Thanks

    Thanks but the one I was thinking of was not a mainstream brand. The throttle body actually looked like a Holley carb. The fuel bowls were actually hollow and the they covered the injectors and electronics.

    Sounds like you're talking about RetroTek, BossEFI system; http://www.retrotekspeed.com/product...ossefi-system/

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    It is for my Dad's 54 Chevy truck. It has a 400 hp motor but we can not get the motor to run right with a carb. Every carb we have tried (Edelbrock, Holley, Q-Jet) has a major stumble off idle. I think that this type of EFI unit will really allow this motor to run well. Perfect air fuel mixture would be great. If he can afford it and he gets it on I will keep every one up to date.
