Re: Powerjection lll Hey, Frank. That's a neat little car. Should be a lot of fun. I noticed you have installed a Powerjection lll unit. I have been reading everything I can find about them, but so far have'nt found but one guy that actually had one. He had it on a 302 Ford road race type car and really liked it. I know you have'nt driven yours much yet, but would you care to share your impressions of it so far? I'm very much interested in trying one on my LS2.

Awesome!!! That has got to be the coolest thing I've seen in a loooong time! My first car was a '76 Maverick, and I absolutely loved it! Nice app. man! Unfortunately for me, mine only had a straight six. You rock!!!::

Powerjection lll...took a dump. wouldn't hold a tune...sent it back.
running a MSD Atomic EFI at the moment..(first day today) like it so far.
don't want to get too excited just yet...this is my 3rd. aftermarket EFI. I tried a Holley system on my 347 first and it was junk right out of the box...
time will tell...
