Re: good fuel injection system

If it never needs to rev past 5000 RPM, a factory TPI manifold is great for low end torque. But if you need RPM, either the Pro Flo manifold or the Holley / Weiand Stealth Ram are better up top.

Re: good fuel injection system

FIRST TPI,

It's a great system and sells complete for around $2k.

Re: good fuel injection system

It's pretty hard to beat simplisity of throttle body injection GM used up to 95. Mix that with some Vortec heads and you've got low end torque on the cheap. Plus it runs on 9-13 psi fuel pressure. That allows you to hang an electric pump on your factory fuel sender

If you want low end, TPI is where you should go.
