You know I was talking to a guy just yesterday that was talking about that and I thought for sure he was talking about the mopar kit for the 258, and he swore it was the for AMC v-8 I thought he was BS'ing me. Do you know anything more about it. Was it just a modified mopar manifold or what?

Yeah its true a 318-360 chrysler manifold will fit a AMCV8 with a mod plate, i will be looking hard into that one.

Ok.... if you find anything E-mail me ASAP otherwise I am looking at getting an INDY MPFI manifold and doing the rest of it on my own. All I need is the throttle body, manifold and injetors. I can do the rest on my own.

So 78 or MC, did you guys ever find anything out about this swap? Fuel injection would rock! Esp if I could get most the parts for cheap from the You Wrench It junk yard! :lo1l:

Hi. First, I would like to introduce myself since I am new to this list.
I am Steve Friend. Not in anyway new to the Jeep world. I own a highly modified '79 CJ7.
I am really interested in this post about fitting FI onto the 360. And, we need to figure out if it can be made Kalifornia smog legal.
Thanks
SFriend
Boy, someone posts a great idea, gets a bunch of interest and then just lets it lay? What happened here? 111!!!
jeepsr4ever
LOL>..Steve can post some Cali requirements that would help...also when i have time i will be making adaptor plates for this setup :?
SFriend
I think it would have to go the other way. I would have to know what this entailed and then see what a referee would have to say. Just some idea of the components etc. Hell, I really don't know, but at least that would be a start. I am sure that if I just posted my smog requirements, that would not be enough.
jeepsr4ever
I have built port injection manifolds before but not built for smog so i dont know the requirements.BUT
Edelbrock is offering a portinjection smog legal intake in feb and we are doing a 5% over cost for forum members if thats something your interested in... I dont know if i will ever build another manifold for street after edelbrock does.
SFriend
I would be very interested. I have tried to get info out of Edelbrock on this and it is like pulling teeth.
jeepsr4ever
Steve your not kidding, edelbrock is very very tight with the info on these two items, i guess they need their sales staff to work it first..i havent even seen a pricing list yet..........But i cant friggin wait :?
SFriend
Maybe, with Edelbrock finally getting into the spirit of things, others will too. I know for sure that I will never bend to the Holly product again. And If I get stuck on the trail with Edelbrock, I would not be a happy camper.

Ilike your 7 Steve!! looks great nice clearance job on the 60! I have done work for parker and offered them several million dollar jobs which they wouldnt even quote unless i had the credit....LOL ohh well they make some great stuff :idea:
SFriend
I have worked with them for a long time. They can be pretty tough.
Thanks on the CJ. It will never be done, but it certainly works. The shaved 60 was an idea that panned out. I have lots of them, some are in the trash.
jeepsr4ever
Let us know if you have a idea you are willing to share and develope
Lifted79CJ7
Hey Steve, glad to see you joined the dark side! So from what you saw MC, it was just an adapter plate to bolt it up to the block? I guess we are all wondering what all sensors are involved with putting this thing together. I also wonder if it can be upgraded to run a 401, healthily. Did you notice any of the sensors, etc when you took a glance at it MC? Any ideas on where to start looking on the web today? I am bored and would liove an asignment. I'll post what I find for everyone.
