You might consider this for putting EFI on the 383. https://www.eficonnection.com/

No reason to ditch the engine if it's put together well and makes the power you want.

Keep up the good work!
I will have to research more about that company. Thanks for the link.

I'll put in my vote for FiTech for the carb replacement. Just don't use their Fuel Commander, go inline pump or better yet, in-tank.

Love your car.
hahaha, well I like making videos and when I have a good subject to talk about it only makes sense to hammer out a video. I have been looking at FiTech and the Holley Sniper kits. Once I get the front end back on the ground and handle a couple other expenses I will figure out what system I will swap over to. Thank you for the info on the fuel commander.

Crazy but all I did was send my bumpers over to the local powder coater and I didn't have the chrome removed, just sprayed over the chrome and it's been working out for a handful of years now with no flaking etc. At some point, I will remove them and flush the mounting bolts and re-powder

Yeah yeah, I know LS swap.... just not realistic with funds for me on the way I would want to do it. When and if I have the funds I will for sure go LS.
