grantf Posted February 16, 2012 Share #12 Posted February 16, 2012 (edited) I know I am not answering you're question, but there are ways of getting the EFI system to perform well. Search the forum or ask what you're symptoms are and you will get help. But at the least you will need of course, a new intake monifold and carbs, but you know this already.
