Guess seeing as I will be joining some of you for a few club stands and hopefully meets. Figured I should stick up some of the PITA Camaro.

1990 5 speed manual with some basic mods.

Certainly never seen an engine bay like that before, what's happening there - It looks like multiport injection into the port runners?

It's running sequential injection for the LPG system using a stand alone ECU System, using the carb as a throttle bodie.

Plan is to completely get the LPG system perfect, then go to Fuel injection instead of a carb. It will be virtually LPG only when done.

It's had a fair few axle and suspension modifications too. Exterior is probably the only untouched bit lol.

Ah, LPG explains it :) What's the running cost like on it? As long as the mechanical bits work that's the important thing :thumbup:

Been having a lot of problems with it, mostly due to the HEI8 distributor causing me faults. Just awaiting my MS3X board (for the ecu) to arrive and I need to rebuild my distributor and then LPG should be back up and running again and I can finally properly map it.

With the current engine mods (Cam, heads,intake, carb and headers) I'm hoping for around 22mpg maybe more.

Sounds like a bit of work ahead but also sounds like you're ontop of what needs doing :thumbup: I imagine it will be quite quick with the intake and headers mods too!
