Forgive me if I'm confused, but you have a throttle body injection on your jeep with a performer intake? If so what type of problem are you having?

lol no big, I myself have had nothing but problems with any edelbrock carb I have ever put on. My brother in-law has the holly projection on his cj and loves it he found it on craigslist for around 400 bucks. I know that is a steal, thats one way to go but finding one for that price is like a needle in a hay stack. You could go with a holly carb. I have always had good luck with them, if there built right they can run just as well as tbi. :t:

I've got a GM 2BBL TBI on my performer manifold. I'm running Howell EFI on mine. www.howell-efi.com I had to grind the inside a bit with a die grinder to smooth the transition between the manifold and adapter plate. Howell will adapt their wiring harness to use a Holley 4 BBL TBI that fits right on the performer if you ask.

I love the Howell system. Aside from a bad O2 sensor, it's been flawless for nearly 10 years now.
