I'm new to the TBI scene so can someone help me out? I won't have a VSS signal but I do have an electronic distributor. Think I can get it to run? I was going to start on the harness this week. Who here has done a tbi conversion?

its official... I HAVE Smile

She's done and i took her for a spin last night! OH MAN this car feels so different, but in a good way! Sounds really good too.

Here are a few issues that we had to overcome.

-Heated O2 sensor (because i have headers)
-Getting the C100 connector working properly (the one in front of the driver firewall. We had to go through wiring diagrams to figure what wires were where so we knew what ones to splice)
-VATS (had to remove it from the chip)

Best of luck man!

Awesome Jake! Thumbs up

sounds like your pleased with the drivability factor. Let us know if the mileage factor improves.

Ya, it's for my 454 camaro. Not sure if it has the yellow box or not. It's an 89 cluster and wiring. I might have a SD computer with an adapter harness for anyone looking to upgrade their MAF 89 to a SD 91+ V6 setup....

Awesome. I'll hopefully start my wiring this week. Gotta get to the crappy junk yard and see if I can find a tbi setup with the injectors I need. Should be fun.
