Fuel Injection Retrofit and Transmission

Jan 24, 2004 2 Replies

Hello,



I have a Ford 429 big block engine that I rebuilt some time ago and is still in it's storage crate. I want to drop this engine into a '53 Ford pickup truck body. The engine is currently setup for carburation (Holly



4 barrel bolt), but I want to retrofit it to computer controlled fuel injection. So basically, what aftermarket injection systems are out there and where can I find them?

I'm also looking for a 4-speed top-loader transmission without the granny gear. The motor uses a 8 inch bolt pattern, but I am willing to use a bell housing if necessary.


Megasquirt, Holley Projection (editorial: blecch!), Accel... there are lots. Check a speed shop, catalog (ie Summit Racing), or do a web search.
