I would've posted pictures by now but time and issues have conspired against me.

1. Standard Bosch injectors won't work with the T2 version of the Victor EFI manifold. Took the Edelbrock Tech a while to get the answer for me, but it was designed for use with compact disc type injectors like those sold by Edelbrock. My EMIC is very understanding and should have the right ones coming to me soon.

2. The fuel rails are canted sharply in toward the TB causing clearance issues. Had I gone with a short TB, I could've used a spacer to get it up off the fuel rails. A thick gasket solved the linkage clearance issues but I'll need to modify the TPS to get the proper clearance on that side.

3. The SS lines I had prebent in larger than stock diameters were not going to go under the car without numerous splices. After some serious debate, the company that supplied them is using my originals to make a new set.

4. I've got over $150 invested in AN fittings with more to be bought - another cost consideration for anyone thinking of going EFI.

I'm on my way to China this weekend and will post pics once I return in early Nov. I'll have lots of time to study the Gen 7 manual while I'm gone
