What all is involved in putting FI BACK on my '74 2.0? Any idea about the cost of parts, likelyhood of it working, etc? EVERYTHING related to the old FI is gone so I would need everything.

The big problem will be finding a “good known running” stock FI set up, if it’s a basket ‘o’ parts off of ebay then you have to start searching for missing pieces, or it has a junk MPS, etc. it could get real expensive fast.
There is a guy here that has a Mega-squirt FI system going, it’s DIY kit and quite cheap, but there is a fair bit of build time. I’m going with a SDS FI system, it is an ‘almost’ plug and play unit, but it costs more. Both are programmable so you can leave the engine stock or Hi-po, it’s just a matter of programming. Both of these systems you still need the stock intake, TB, injectors, fuel pump, pressure regulator, etc. and a bit of work, but it’s still better than carb’s. If this does interest you use your search button and look up these systems. If you do stick with the carb’s ditch the POS progressive and get a set of dual webers. |
