The Edelbrock tank looks like its a lot bigger than the FITech one. I looked at that one a while ago but couldn't see a good way to fit it without moving other stuff.

There's a guy in these forums that made his own.
Here's a couple threads where there's been some previous discussion :

The 85551 is the exact one I am going with.

Re: FITECH EFI 600 Basic and Command center intall with pics, factory tank
 

Cool! I'm going the same route as you.
First I'll get the FiTech EFI all up and running, then make the switch to Computer Controlled Timing.
Originally I thought my existing distributor was a nice MSD, so I was going to hold off on the timing control feature, but mines just an old GM HEI with a pretty MSD cap and wires.

My current dizzy is a Msd street Fire hei. Basically a exact gm hei replica with a few nicer internal parts. Don't throw your dizzy away. May be a street fire also

Re: FITECH EFI 600 Basic and Command center intall with pics, factory tank
 

No, I found a stamped number on the side. It's out of a 77 vet.
Either way, I won't be throwing it away.

As far as I can tell, the only thing we need is a coil and phasing rotor. Nothing else is needed for the ECU.

Re: FITECH EFI 600 Basic and Command center intall with pics, factory tank
 

CORRECTO FRIENDO I may buy an extra cap to drill a hole in to phase the rotor. Look it up on YouTube. Msd has a nice write up.

Re: FITECH EFI 600 Basic and Command center intall with pics, factory tank
 

Yep, already saw that video. In the last couple weeks I think I've watched every msd video there is. Along with every FiTech, E-Street, Terminator, EZ-Fast, Atomic video there is. :-D

So does this thing run off the stock low pressure pump, and then using a secondary pump in that big until to boost the pressure?

Re: FITECH EFI 600 Basic and Command center intall with pics, factory tank
 

Yes, but it isn't that big. There's a forum post of it next to a pop can.
Here's a video :

Last pictures unless someone ask for more. Here she is all cleaned up under the hood and the paint touched up I chipped. I bought some wire mold I gotta put on behind the breather

What in cab heater are you using?
I'm thinking about installing my FCC there on the passenger's firewall.

Re: FITECH EFI 600 Basic and Command center intall with pics, factory tank
 

I have vintage air the gen IV kit. Heater coil is in the cab with evaporator coil

Re: FITECH EFI 600 Basic and Command center intall with pics, factory tank
 

Thanks

Re: FITECH EFI 600 Basic and Command center intall with pics, factory tank
 

Awesome install! This may have already been asked, but why do you have two A/C compressors? Or is one acting as an air compressor for a bagged suspension?
Thanks!

In regards to the phenolic spacer- how much of an issue is heat soak on a FI throttle body?

Re: FITECH EFI 600 Basic and Command center intall with pics, factory tank
 

I collect and restore 100% real train horns and bells. I converted the compressor on the drivers side to an air compressor. I run 3 tanks. The 12 in back and 2 3 gallons for a total of 18 gallons at 200 psi regulated to 130 for the horns. No bags on the truck. Just a weird LOUD hobby. These are my 1957 bronze chambered Leslie supertyfons S5T and bell. Both off the same 1950's Norfolk Southern unit

I have never heard of any issues with heat soak on fuel injection. No problems with mine to date.

Re: FITECH EFI 600 Basic and Command center intall with pics, factory tank
 

If it where me i would run hard line under the radiator and just use rubber to connect to the pumps that much rubber fuel line is asking problems

Your neighbors gotta love ya :rolleyes:
:haha:
Seriously, that is cool as hell.

Re: FITECH EFI 600 Basic and Command center intall with pics, factory tank
 

I wonder if it helps with fuel atomization, probably not much. I have a 1" spacer under my carb and I was wondering if I should keep it with the fuel injection or just remove it.
I wonder if anyone has done a test to see if it makes a difference or not.

Re: FITECH EFI 600 Basic and Command center intall with pics, factory tank
 

That is bad to the bone. I bet folks poop their pants when you come up behind them and hit that train horn!
