Question:fuel injection swap

I really want to put a fuel injection set up on my 68 gmc. i was wandering if anyone has done this and how hard it was. I'm pretty good with older carburated engines but i usually try not to mess with FI too much. My idea though was to find a late 80's TPI camaro for cheap and use everything from it for my 68. Also i was wandering if GM made any other FI systems that would be easier to come by than the TPI. thanks

Re: Question:fuel injection swap

TPI or throttle body would be easy. You'll get better HP out of TPI, but the TBI is easier to set up and you can usually keep your spread-bore intake manifold.
