[QUOTE="junkyard jim, post: 769930, member: 16140"] Biggest drawback to injection (besides the price) is vapor lock. I have to build a custom intake with a cooling jacket so I can get it running after warm shutdowns. My motor is 4.0L block (shaved to zero deck for 11:1 compression) and 0.030 4.0L pistons with 258 crank and rods (I would rather get rods 0.030 longer and not shave the deck. Gotta watch out the pistons don't come too far down out of the bore and bind in the hole!) Still trying to decide which cam (currently have the HO stock cam) I'm running the Renix head unless I get another HO one to build (did a 3 angle grind, port and polish the Renix already) The plan is to use an HO EFI harness and computer to run the injectors, but I hope to tap in and run a knock sensor so I can still manually adjust timing a bit. (adjustable crank sensor, adjustable MAP and a few other goodies) Just trying to find time and $$$ to finish it (had to cough up $2,000 for a new garage to work in) [/QUOTE]
