I wanted the TBI stuff. I think this has been discussed before, will a 4.3 tbi setup work on a v8, with change of injectors/computer?Quote:

You can borrow that crap from the 4.3 in my garage if you want. It's not like it's going to be used anytime soon.Quote:

edit- i meant TPI and that was directed at jerry.
I'm not scared of TBI. If you remember, that's what's been on my scout for about 5 years now. It works good. I'm just saying that instead of trying to source additional parts, he could spend the time and effort on the TPI for the same amount of plumbing and wiring work and not only use something he already has, but end up with a more powerful, responsive engine to boot.
im siding with you fred. post edited.
my thoughts are, i'll fiddle with the current tpi for a little bit, but I dont even know if anything i have is good. the guy "got it to fire once" who the fork knows what he did.
Well, the only thing that could really be wrong with it is dead sensors, or a bad harness. Turns out I'm sure has multiple spares of these parts sitting in a corner of his apartment in College station. I he doesn't, I do. Even if the injectors are bad, I've got a set of 24#'s from an LT1 sitting on my desk at home that I'll give you. Just get a case of beer, and a bottle of Jim, and invite me and flem down for a weekend. :)
I bet vats wasn't disabled and it fired with a shot of carb cleaner
easy fix, get me the computer out of it when you get a chance and I'll fix it.
He mentioned a 4.3 TBI, so I was curious if there was an engine with it. I'd like to swap in a V6 or V8 at some pointQuote:
