When my Pulse Air injection tubes broke, I plugged the holes with brass plugs that I got from my local Ace Hardware. They were standard off-the-shelf brass plugs.

I noticed a significant power increase from the MPFI kit, but I installed a new header at the same time, so I don't know what power increase came from the kit and what power came from the header. Frankly, I think most of my power came from the header, the kit gave me increased reliability and improved mileage.

It's a nice feeling when a serious mod fires up eh.

Where did you buy the mopar unit? Used to see a dealer that had it for

1600.00 but can't remember the name. Also, how much time did it take to install?

I bought mine used for 1000.00 shipped plus the Balancer used for 80.00 shipped. I had to buy the O2 sensor and some other more minor things.

Acutally it took me over a month but I had to do some modifications to the exhaust manifold to make that fit properly as the former owner didn't seat that correctly and then to the power steering bracket to make the aluminum valve cover fit then a lot of running around to find certian parts. Plus I had only Half Saturdays and 1 to 2 hours every other night after work.
