Those are UNBELIEVABLY cool! Yes that's all there is... The answer to your question is "Depends on how big the injectors actually are" and "Are replacements available"

The black hoses are feeding them

This is a question for Bob, Jack or Joe for sure



BTW a modern computer programmable version is all new from CB. (but I'm sure you're going for C-O-O-L  2@@cool

I don't have any experience with this setup. I wonder what times and triggers the injectors? Does anybody know?

That's EFI.  This is mechanical... Got a schnazzy rotary fuel pump (which the ebay setup does not!)

 From the old days of reading Hot Rod Magazine, the rule of thumb was that Hilborn injectors are not suitable for the street.

  I can almost say for certain the the seller is our friend and absentee meember; Juinior.

  He is moving to North Carolina.

CB Performance has FI that looks just like the hilborn but is computer programmable. A litle distressing & it'll look  2@@cool
