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 may be more power in a good MPI setup), otherwise youll need to buy or fab up an intake manifold and throttle body with TPS, fuel rails, etc. I don’t carry the manifold and fuel system bits at this time, just the engine management systems and accessories, so I’ll move on to that…. FOR FUEL AND IGNITION CONTROL– Wed suggest running a MegaSquirt-II PCBv3 or v3.57 unit and youll need a compatible Crank Angle Sensor to determine engine position and RPM from as well as some way to fire the ignitionwith the MS2 this is generally a distributor based solution or the Ford EDIS or GM DIS distributorless solutions which could be adapted to your engine (most adaptations use EDIS which also uses its own 36-1 Crank A
