I'm converting to efi on my 85. Has anyone ever had experience doing this?

I need to know what i'll need in accessories to get the job done. I dont know where to start. Car has CFI now.

He doesn't need the entire engine. He just needs the efi intake. We put an 85 engine in my friends '88 and retained the entire '85 bottom end, heads, cam and just put the efi manifold on top.

Of course, he will need all the wiring and all that.

I know. Im just saying if he's pulling all that crap out of a donor car, it would be cheaper and easier to go on a 50% off day and just grab the whole thing. If you start pulling parts then they will charge you individually(grabbed an entire engine for $100), that way he gets the better heads of the areo cars and make the swap a whole lot simpler

Well whats everything im gonna need. I have a lx at the shop just collecting dust. I need Engine harness and the dash harness? What about everything for the fuel pump etc? it has central fuel injection now so im not sure if i'll just need the engine harness and thats it. thats the point im confused at

Why not just ditch it for a 4v carb setup? I'm all for fuel injection, but in this case it would be cheaper to go true carb and not efi.
