    Simple EFI conversion.

    G'day, all. I am toying with upgrading the Old Trol to efi, but I do not wish to go through the agony of acquiring a used Skyline or VL. Then stripping it for parts etc.

    I have searched for a while and found this unit. https://www.holley.com/products/fuel.../parts/550-858

    I am sure, that with a small mod to the Tacho signal, I could get it to run quite well on the 3litre as it is able to support over 300hp.

    The simplicity and cost of this unit are attractive, considering I would have to also hire a trailer to drag a parts car to my place.

    Please wade right in and share your thoughts.

    Edit: Just read a review that it needs at least 200hp minimium to run properly.

    Don't know much about it but I'd love to watch you try it!

    Also don't know about that review you read. They're selling the unit specifically targeted at the Jeep 258ci engine which looks like it's 110hp stock? Would be worth trying to contact them to check before handing over your hard earned but looks to me like it should be compatible on the HP side of things.

    There is an Australian dealer, but they don't have that model listed on their catalog.
