[T3] 72 FI or compatible

[Keith Park]

I have a lot of parts available, but... you CANT just piece together a
Frankenstein FI system. After you've done all the research and learned about
all the different systems you find out that the best you can do is choose a
complete system and convert to that... ie, L jet instead of D or one of the
new programmable systems that's been ripped off an old Geo or something like
that.

Everything is a matched set and A LOT of design went into it, you can do
some piecing together of things within a given system, like the T4 D jet I
used on the 2056, I used some D and some L stuff but only after others had
done the flow tests etc, but it was mainly a D system.  Its A LOT of work to
get it all really working properly. I did this... what a pain!

With a stock motor, its well worth gathering what you need, recondition it,
and use that.

Subject: [T3] 72 FI or compatible

I am looking to try and build my own FI for my 27 Square using some old
and some new components. My 72 currently has had all the FI equipment
removed.

I plan on using a newer brain (programmable) and injection components. I
know some out there would say (Why?) Well as I appreciate those out here
who work to restore theses FI systems I prefer something a little more
modern and refined but would like to keep a some what stock look under
the hood.

 

My question is does any one have all the intake components from the body
to the heads? And how much am I looking at for just these parts? 

I don't want to break up any complete assembly, but if there is one out
there that is missing many other parts that is what I would be looking
for. 

 

Thanks for any info or help,
