Silkesvarten's 1979 Chevrolet Camaro Ford Motorsport 30# Injectors, these will hopefylly support the engines output when I get done some with the TPI setup and the Haltec ECM
Silkesvarten's 1979 Chevrolet Camaro Fueltank cut and cleaned to be modified for EFI pump and baffles
Silkesvarten's 1979 Chevrolet Camaro This is from a previous modification. Before the EFI system. Made this sump from sheet metal and velded 2*3/8" bsp connections to it. Drilled holes under the tray with a 1 1/2" hole saw.

LT1 Intake convension

Silkesvarten's 1979 Chevrolet CamaroGot his intake from a burned LT1 engine. Wil have to machine new holes for intake mounting, Distributor and spacer to align the angle. Water passages and thermostat will also be mounted in the engine bay. This is some work but i feel this will gain more top end power than the TPI intake.
