Where is a good place to have an intake converted to efi and fuel rails machined?

That is a torquer manifold for standard port heads. I see pro comp makes on now but I can't bring myself to buying one of those. I'm looking to convert my BT or vic jr intake.

The torker will for Scj ports.

And eddy has the rails if you want to use them on another intake.

I have the eddy rails but they are offset about 1/8" compared to the cj port. Below is a vic jr intake with the eddy rail you are talking about.

You could use these;

and not even need a fuel rail.

Fuel rail would be the better option due to the fuel log aspect of it.

That would be a plumbing nightmare for 8 injectors. Might be ok for them 4 cylinder guys.

Mechanical fuel injection set-ups use a hose to each cylinder, right? I don't see why this would be much different pluming wise.

The problem I would see is that the fuel volume would be less than what a fuel rail would hold. But, a 6 -an to 1/4? NPT fitting would flow a good amount of fuel given it would be only for one cylinder.

Mechanical injection is constant flow where as an electronic injector is opening and closing which creates pulses in the fuel line. The volume in the fuel rail helps smooth out those pulses like a buffer so to speak. Or so I read.  Wink
