    MSD Atomic EFI

    100% on the mark. I personally would forget about the other systems, and go with the Holley Avenger multipoint, one of the main reasons being, that it uses standard injectors, and the other, just as equally important, its the same system being used by NASCAR, which means excellent support, and...

    Come in for the biggest letdown of your life!

    MPG may get better....lower to the ground, better aerodynamics. I wonder how white walls or stripers would look tucked up in tight? LOL! Will handle better for Evasive maneuvers too...... :emotions33:

    Factory TBI sparkplug wire routing?

    This is a little better than OEM But like in Reatro's pics, there are 2 double holders on each side, mounted on brackets that are bolted to the heads betwix the cylinders. Then on each side on the back of the heads, there are quad holders, bolted to the back of the heads, then the wires run...

    1973 body 1995 frame

    You can still run the 4l60e behind the carb, but you would need to run a VSS, And TPS. Not sure why you would want to run a carb when you have all the 95 stuff, but you can do it with what you already have.

    Edelbrock 1406 detent cable correction

    Just to make sure, you did adjust the cable housing all the way back then ratchet it back out by opening the carb to full throttle, right? Thats the base setting, you dont want it any slacker than that.

    Ohhh yes. You made her run pig rich by knocking that line of. That sensor is the Manifold Absolute Pressure(MAP) sensor. It measures vacuum so the ECM can determin the demands of the engine, along with the Throttle position sensor(TPS)and O2 sensor. it is also a sort of backup for the TPS if it...

    Coil wont hurt, but an ignition module either works, or it doesn't. there is no mid ground problem causing with that. Be very mindful of wires 5 and 7. As close as they are, it is real easy to cross them.

    Yeah, their commercials are a trip too, they show a guy working the parts counter, then show him at home on the weekend, maintaining a sweet 1 st gen Camaro or something, in a pristine, well equipped garage, green lawn, and a 2 story house on 3/4 acre, with 3 kids running around all happy....Be...

    Go back over the plug routing...look at 5-7, if everything is correctly routed, and it still runs like shit,, take em back, and get another set.

    vortec head swap, cam swap etc. few q's

    Yup...thats what I was thinking. Would need to set the idle at 1000 rpm just to keep it running.

    vortec head swap, cam swap etc. few q's

    Would run like crap until about 2000 rpm unless it is tuned for the heads.
