TBI Mods?
I am rebuilding my throttle body with a full BWD kit. I was wondering if there are any simple mods I can do while it's apart.

Re: TBI Mods?
TB Spacer, Injector pod spacer, Make your fuel regulator adjustable would be my advice. Would also go with a high output pump, but dont "have" to...

Re: TBI Mods?
here is some good info. http://www.cfm-tech.com/GMTBIPerformanceParts.htm I did some research before, but I have forgotten. Most I got from "Google" high performance tbi. Good luck
edit: Also it would be a good idea to make the pressure regulator adjustable, stock it is just alittle to low.http://www.fl-thirdgen.org/tbiafpr.html

But then you'd be investing in some hardware and software to recalibrate the ECM. Not sure what the smallblock TBI intake manifolds are like, the pre-'91 big-block TBI intakes are horrible. But then so are the heads, cam, exhaust, etc. |
