I too want to keep track of this set up . I prefer the more simple system. We tried to put the ford TBI on Runnig Buddies swap but the guy doing it was closing his doors when buddies job was furnished so it did not turn out too well at the end.

 

[Pa PITT]

Oh what is the price of this system.

 

[stlo]

850 to your door

 

[Bukin 67]

$850? Less than I thought. Not bad

I almost went that route at the advice of several people who've done that exact swap, then out of the blue a friend found a screaming deal on a lightning lower manifold for my 351 and parts just started appearing... a buddy gave me a MAF and injectors, I bought the few odd sensors needed and a harness from summit. I am into my Ford EFI swap for under a grand and very happy with it. I was however days away from ordering the AFI kit. I'd have been happy with either but I love my Ford setup so far.

I have ran the 2bl. Intake and carb for ever and it always worked just fine..... Just always wanted fuel injection

World of difference between the 2 in winter time right...

We'll try it out soon! Looks good so far.

Im interested in this too, my buddy has software to program his own chips for gm tbi on his blazer and I was showing him this kit as a potential project on my bronco.

Interesting thread. I too have decided to abandon the ford EFI system just because I want to use a Boss 429 shaker hood scoop and have it functional as well and still have EFI.

Oh yeah, where are the pics you promised us? LOL

 

[stlo]

I will have more pics by the end of the day I promise....lol

I will have more pics by the end of the day I promise....lol

But I'm on my lunch break now!%) Just kidding lol;D I will be following this upgrade closely. My frst year of winter daily driving with the stock carb. It has not been fun.%)

Ok so I popped for a couple of extras...... Reg 3/8" for the return and 3/8" EFI hose from the pump to the throttle body

 

[stlo]

The guys recommend a 1 1/2" hole to get the harness through.... It was a lil tight but it went.....I'm mounting the computer in the glove box so the harness goes right over the heater box through the 1 1/2" hole

Here is a shot from the engine bay

 

[stlo]

And another

 

[stlo]

Got the temp sensor installed......kinda sucks cause this where my mech. Temp sensor went but I guess I could buy an elec. one and splice into the new harness..... Idk I'm gonna have to call them and make sure

 

[stlo]

Here it is taken out

 

[stlo]

And the new one installed

 

[stlo]

Also got the O2 sensor installed....it comes with a bung to weld on so u just have to drill a hole and weld it on
