-Quickdodge--I looked at doing the overdrive thing at the beginning of building the car, but a local custom shop here told me I should be able to get 18 to 20 hwy miles with a fuel injection and 3.23 rears (driving 65 of course)





You ought to be able to get that kind of mileage with a carb. The old Projection, like you have, is a POS. I bought one and swapped it on my 87 Diplomat. Mileage went into the toilet no matter what I did, I even coughed up for the optional O2 sensor rig, it did nothing. I ended up tossing it and putting the Edelbrock 1406 4bbl back on, mileage and driveability were much better. If you have to have TBI, I'd suggest getting the Megasquirt ECU to control the Projection rather than the Holley ECU.


They say there are no such thing as a stupid question.
They say there is always the exception that proves the rule.
Don't be the exception.
