I have located all the "hardware" thru schumachers, but am wondering if anyone has done this and might have some advice to the electronics side of the swap or any problems I have to look forward to. Thanks all. Post #: 1

I love fuel injection myself but unless ya got a whole donor vehicle thats complete motor and wire harness wise, itd be a pain in the u know what. _____________________________ 1992 Dodge Daytona 1983 BMW 528E 1990 Lebaron 1987 Dodge Dakota (for sale) 1992 Dodge D250 w/ a Cummins Diesel (in reply to dodgedakotacrazy) Post #: 3
