  • Rod & Custom article on GM TBI conversion...

    J've seen people asking alot of questions in this particular area about GM TBI conversions. I read an article in Rod & Custom about that very thing. The guy has a 34 Phaeton with a GM ZZ4 crate engine installed. He switched from an Edelbock carb that was having power issues at high elevations, and he wasn't satisfied with the gas mileage above 70 mph. The article covers the install from start to finish, and shows you exactly what you need to perform the swap. Here's a link to the article in it's entirety...

    And here's the company that provided some of the parts (like the ECU and PROM).

    Looking at the article, it looks like most of the parts can be sourced from a junkyard...or Ebay for those of us who may not like visiting junkyards. You could probably use the Howell website as a guide to help source some of the other parts (example: I'm sure you can find the knock sensor needed cheaper at Advance Auto than at Howell, but Howell can still tell you exactly the one you need). Hope this helps!
