Re: Junk yard fuel injection

A stock TPI system is pretty limited too and falls on its face around 4500 rpm. They just don't flow much air stock.

The parts to make it much better are out there but add up to a mountain of money in a hurry. Most TPI guys end up with a Holley short runner MPFI system that looks like the LT1 intake. If you don't have to meet emissions that is the way to go to keep your old engine but for the same cost you can do an LS engine swap now and get more HP and MPG out of the deal.
