Fuel Injection Issues – Accel DFI?

Go back to a carb or stick with fuel injection?

I’ve been trying to track down a bogging issue I have  with the Camaro. A few shops I deal with just want to rip the fuel injection out and go carburetor but I don’t want to do that.

Spoke to my good friend Rich Plakas who used to have a fuel injected 72 Vette with a 383 engine. He said it looks similar to his setup which was an Accel DFI.

I need to snoop around the car and find the ECU box to know for sure and then I am going to talk to a few shops that tune late model GM cars and see if they can tune out my issues.

Stay “tuned” ;-)

  3. Improved Acceleration / Throttle Response
  4. Improved Fuel Economy by 30% +
  5. Reduced Emissions (GO GREEN)
  6. Increased Horsepower and Torque
  7. Better control over any power adder, especially Nitrous
  8. The end of blowing your carburetor through the hood while using Nitrous Oxide
