Title: factory FI
Post by: driverfound269 on March 08, 2009, 10:31:00 AM

Was thinking of run running my oe fuel injection on my 2165,would this work or should I get 2.0l injectors?
Or should I stick with carbs?

What are you trying to accomplish, with this motor?

IMO, the only place oem stock fuel injection should be used, is in stock applications. It is very restrictive to airflow.
For performance, my first choice would be... go with aftermarket EFI and dual throttle bodies.
Or maybe, even a single large throttle body. (Tom Hansen's notchback comes to mind.)
Second choice, would be dual carbs.
Keep your oem parts, stored for the next owner of the vehicle.
