it acutally only cost about $1450(at least thats what i paid).Leave out the fuel system and your at about a grand.

 

Are you going to clean up under the car at all? Those shiney new parts are begging for a prettier backdrop.

 

Eventually, yes. But just to get it on the road again and become a driver project is my goal.


As far as a cheaper EFI, this is about as cheap as it gets. I'm also weighing the bonuses of getting into EFI:
*Cold starts are easier
*Average about 10 more HP
*Average a little better fuel efficiency
*No more adjusting/tweaking of the carb or having clogged jets
*Runs the same no matter what altitude [I plan on doing the Power Tour at least once]

Yes you can get this system down to the $1500 range, but you need a fuel system already in place. The current fuel pump won't work and also these EFI systems need a return line. Unless you get a returnless system.

It is bucks, but I'm thinking the benefits out weight the cost.

 

Thats cool. Its something to consider for a future mod.

 

look online, I have a powerjection 1 I got for 1200.00 barely used from a cobra guy who decided he wanted weber stack efi and the powerjection 1 has programmable ignition control and returnless fuel control it just has a seperate ECU.

 

Update:

I just cleaned up my old spindles. I used new hardware though:


QA-1 Adjustable shock inside Global West SB Spring [525lb]:


Finished Driver Side with SSBC brakes and drilled/slotted rotors:


New lug nuts, of course! I also used some Simple Green on the rim to try and clean it up:


Once I get the engine back and the car drivable, I'll take it down to get outfitted with new rims and tires. I'm going custom backspacing...but I'm not revealing what rims I am using quite yet. I want to be somewhat unique!

All I have left to do on the passenger side is get the caliper installed. Muscle Car Gremlins stole my brake pads...

Here is the reward for a corrected suspension:
