I would go with a carb if it were me, simply because I don't know much about fuel injections and carbs are just simple to fix or replace. Let me tell you, If i listened to my wife 100% of the time, I would be ALOT better off..lol All the money I wasted on cars, I could have paid for a divorce..lol hahaha..Seriously, thanks for the advice that the way Im leaning.. One question, my car right now has I believe 2 electric fuel pumps delivering 40psi at idle, Im assuming I would have to remove them and add a pump set up for carburated motors?? |
BTW this is what I came out of...I went form domestics back int he days, to Imports, and back to domestics;This Nissan would go low 10's all night!!!I would drive it to and from the track (unless I broke..lol) and had cup holders and air conditioning..hahaha Everything was all off the shelf parts available for it, except the tranny, we adapted a TH400 for it..Best thing EVER!!! but when things broke!!!EXPENSIVE..
Example-Domestic high end cam $250 Nissan cam set-$1300 http://i221.photobucket.com/albums/d...02run_0001.jpg http://i221.photobucket.com/albums/d...C/th_pinks.jpg http://i221.photobucket.com/albums/d...C/th_Movie.jpg |

Just to bump this up....I have decided to keep the Comet and drop my Carburated 355 in there and remove the LT1 from it. I am compiling a list of what I will need to do the swap and need your help.
I know I have to change the following: Fuel pump- Currently I have an after market electric fuel pump which is High pressure. If I am correct I believe I will need to go with a lower pressure fuel pump and regulator for Carburated cars. Correct? TQ converter- I have a pretty hot cam in the 355 and currently the tranny has a 2400 stall, Im guessing to go with a 3000 stall? Distributer- I would like to replace the OEM distributer in my 355 and install something with a rev limit and 2 step. Any recommendations on that? That seems about it for now... Oh and one more question, will Headers from the LT1 bolt right up to the Gen I motor??? Or do I need headers? |
heres another option in my opinion go with a professional products projection III its efi in cab looks learns on go and not as much b.s. as a factory system then you have classic sbc classic looks modern efi driveablity
