    Swap meet intake, used FAST and then hit up some more swap meets and craigslist somemore.

    Hate to ask, but why do you want to put fuel injection on a 428? Whats wrong with a single four barrel on an edelbrock RPM intake and a 750 carb?

    Also I hope you have some tough skin, because alot of people here are not down with injection, unless its mechanical.

    Powerjection III, less than 2K and tunes itself- plus it looks like a Holley DP. Been done on FE's and worked out well

    google FE forum and talk about it over there and search. ALOT of awsome FE guys, meangene included.

    Plus they will like fuel injection and you will get more of a response over there then here.

    Power and economy seem to me to be mutually exclusive ideas.

    Back on Topic - Hilborn Mechanical Fuel Injection, $2695 - new (If you already own the Blue Thunder Intake, pump, etc) - OK Forget the $3K thing, sell a kidney or something, because it sure is pretty.:D

    Well, I don't have the Blue Thunder intake, but I do have an original Holman Moody Weber intake, which is what it was lifted from ;) I've been toying with the idea of setting up some throttle bodies and multiport EFI on it- something like the Hayabusa setup would probably work OK, but that bike stuff that's covered up on the bike tends to be pretty fugly :(
