Decision time soon (preferably only once). Later this month I will pick up my refurbished case, crank, and heads from Competition Engineering in Phoenix. I want to build this up to 2056 and use fuel injection.
So, do I keep the stock D-jet that was on the car? I have no idea if it works. And I expect that I will spend time and money tracking down rebuilt/replacement components. Plus modify the system for the increased displacement. Or do I go aftermarket, spend more time and money, but hope for better results? And maybe some sexy twin intakes? |

Twin intakes are an unnecessary cost and added complexity if you already have the D-jet intake, but they do look awesome so do whatever suits you! Also once you have gone aftermarket injection its usually pretty easy to swap induction later down the road so dont feel like that decision needs to be made day 1. |

Twin intakes are an unnecessary cost and added complexity if you already have the D-jet intake, but they do look awesome so do whatever suits you! A "second" on James. I'm running Microsquirt with the stock D-Jet induction bits (incl t-body), dead stock engine. I get no change in MAP (95.x kPA) on WFO throughout the rev range up through 5500 RPM. I'm building a 2056 with bigger valves and cam over the winter, so it'll be fun to see if the D-Jet induction can handle the additional airflow. Plus, dual t-bodies are louder... |
