Dan,

        Haven't yet, still waiting for the MPI manifold. As soon as I get
it, I will start playing with it. A few items that I have been told are that
the MPI manifold has different injector spacing, If this is true, them new
fuel rails will need to be fabricated. Supposedly, the TPS is on the
opposite side of the TB (I don't have the TB here in front of me, so I can't
verify). If this is true and I really don't remember, then a different TPS
will need to be used (opposite rotation). I am really anxious to work on
this, but I need to finish all of the modified TB's we have promised to
people. My opinion is that the 4 BBL TB is overkill, but it sure looks nice.
With the modified 2 BBL's at almost 700 CFM you really don't need or can't
use any more air.

        Frank
