Im considering an EFI conversion – converting my car from carbs to EFI– what do I need to consider?
Starting with the fuel system it will need to be converted to a high pressure system suitable for fuel injection (around 43.5 psi for MPI, less for TBI if you go that route), if you can get a TBI unit (with TPS) that bolts to your manifold that may be the simplest route (though their likely will be more power and better economy/emissions in a good MPI setup), otherwise you’ll need to buy or fab up an intake manifold and throttle body with TPS, fuel rails, etc. We don’t carry intake manifolds at this time, though we do carry many of the fuel system components you will need, and of course the engine management systems and accessories. FOR FUEL AND IGNITION CONTROL– We’d suggest running a MegaSquirt-II, or MegaSquirt-III, using the PCB v3 or v3.57. You’ll need a compatible Crank Angle Sensor to determine engine position and RPM from as well as some way to fire the ignition — with the MS2 this is generally a distributor based solution or the Ford EDIS or GM DIS distributorless solutions
