Just got off the phone with my mechanic who is trying to get the car to pass emissions. He says the MPC Sensor is bad and he is having trouble locating one. I took a quick look at Pelican and their price is $975 or so. Mechanic suggested going to carburation, but I am leaning on keeping the car original if at all possible.

Help! I would appreciate any and all suggestions and ideas.

Thanks! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

I'd stick with the FI, personally. Without changing the cam, you won't get much benefit from switching to carbs. About the MPS, what about is is bad? Does it not hold a vaccuum? Are the coils bad? Or is it just out of adjustment? Depending on whats wrong, there are various ways to fix it. I think SLITS may have a few decent used ones. Geoff Bleyseng also recalibrates them, and he may still have a few good ones. I'm sure they'll chime in. If you could give us more info on whats wrong, it'll be easier to help.

If you haven't read Brad Anders web page yet, take a read. It explains how to test the MPS, and how it works.
