What would I need convert my car back to fuel injection I bought it with the setup it has now because the car was only 3500 but I don't know if I am happy with this setup.

My guess is

-Fuel system??
-typhoon intake or performer rpm
-TB?
-Maf
-Fuel injectors 24ib or 36ib
-fuel rails
-painless wireing harness because its simple and I hate wireing
-computer out of junk yard car unless I can get a new and better one for a good price


Would this be worth it or am I going to waste alot of money

you probably wouldn't make any more power but you may save on fuel. plus your car would run better on cold days.

A wiring harness from the J/Y for your year & model car would be easier & cheaper than a Painless harness. It would probably clean up some of the wiring (or miswiring since carb conversions tend to be hack jobs) too.

I just did a 2.3L to 5.0L swap and had a donor car. IT was easy for me. IF you cannot get a donor car, then try to buy the stand alond engine management harness from summit racing.

Sorry man, I had a donor car that I took all my parts from. However, www.50resto.com might be able to help you. You could prolly build a whole car from that site.
