Need expertise on EFI conversion for a 406SBC

The Terminator X Stealth is a good system if you want TBI. The Terminator X ECU will also handle the inevitable LS swap in the future.

what if your are a SBC guy that might want MPI? Cam isn't super lumpy, but 14.5" at vacuum I am thinking a TBI setup might not be ideal. And from what I have heard I might have to swap to an open intake anyway, so the cost difference starts to contract.

Thanks for all the discussion points everyone. I am still researching and all these points open up new questions.

Zero expertise here but I’m doing a Terminator X Max Stealth TBI and Vaporworx/ZL1/Ricks Restomod combo on my 406. It’ll take me forever to get it all done but if by some miracle it doesn’t, I’ll let the group know how it goes. Parts are all here, now just gotta do the work!

I'm going to second the previous comments....Ricks Tanks, carl at vapor worx and Andrew for the tune...No complaints I have a car that is reliable fun to drive and performs on the track without issues....its great recipe.

How did the install go? Have you completed or began yet? Finally my Terminator X showed up today. Does anybody have any ideas for places to mount the ECU in a 69 Camaro?

I love your optimism Jacob….

I haven’t done much at all. It got hot here and the only progress I made was on the rear suspension and trunk. I’m just about ready to get started once the cooler months arrive though!

I am nearing the finish line. Andrew has been great to work with along with Carl. I only have a couple road miles hopefully finishing up today!

Lets see who gets this completed first. I went ahead and pulled the trigger on the Terminator X along with a controller from Carl at Vaporworx. Andrew has also been involved in this. I went with the Holley Sniper EFI tank and the larger pump. The controller is supposed to be here today, the tank showed up last week. I am waiting on a shipping confirmation for the EFI kit. Good luck with your install!

I have the Holley EFI Terminator 4bbl setup on my vortec headed 383 SBC and I love it. I'll echo what everyone above said, work with Carl on the fuel system needs and work with Andrew on the tuning.

Personally, if I was doing it over again...I'd use this intake which was NOT available when I did mine.





But I'm still pretty happy with my throttle body injection setup.
