I checked with some custom EFI outfits, and they will make a unit for a
inline six, putting injectors right before each intake valve.(On your
supplied intake manifold) I didn't get a price, but $1500 to $2000 wouldn't
surprise me. I don't remember which company or companies do it. Also,
there's at least one good book out on custom EFI. "Fuel injection", by Jeff
Hartman. You can contact Classic motorbooks at www.motorbooks.com. Or so it
says on the back cover. If you end up doing this, please let us know. I'd
like to do it, expensive or not. Bob K in PHX, AZ.
