Currently have a 3.5 V8 on SUs, following advice on here, i want to put a EFI unit on, approached a couple of local garages, not interested...
Anyone know anyone ...

I can supply EFI heads and a manifold with injectors if wanted then you can swap it over yourself
You will need an ECU though and to fit an ECU plug back onto the wiring but the diagram is there with colours
Are you anywhere near Haslemere?

Talk to Nigel, he'll have everything you need and may want to throw it together for you
Really??? I thought it would be a easy 30-40 bhp upgrade and also give easier starting (no mucking around with a choke etc...)A carburetted 3.5 should be OK, they ran for years without the need for EFI, but changing emission requirements and the need for better fuel efficiency forced the who car industry to switch to injection. Now you'd be hard pushed to find a new car with a carb on it.
EFI always sounds alluring, but the early systems weren't that clever or that reliable, if it was me I'd stay with carbs.

It dynoed at 195bhp and 245 lb/ft. The top end difference isn't that much, but compared to the standard engine, the mid range torque and power are hugely different, peak power is at 4300 rpm and peak torque at 2400 rpm.Martin whats the specs? have youhad it rolling roaded?
