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? |

The answer is "no" unless you ask... Group: Members Posts: 1,184 Joined: 21-November 15 From: White Plains New York Member No.: 19,387 Region Association: North East States |
I don't know what a complete aftermarket fuel injection system would cost, but I'm well over $1500 piecing together my 2.0 D-Jet FI system. I put a WTB add up for a complete system and paid going rate a few years ago plus new fuel injectors because when I flow tested them they were clogged and couldn't be repaired. Also bought a reman 2056 MPS from Mr Bowlsby along with some other odds and ends. It's all together now and seems to run nicely after chasing down vacuum leaks which turned to be a replacement 2.0 throttle body (more $) and now that all is said and done, I would have, could have and should have put big valve 2.0 cylinder heads from Len Hoffman. In short, think the whole thing thru first and stick with the plan and you'll have a good result. Good Luck.
