Hi. I'm hoping to be in the market for a GMC in the next couple of months and wondered what thoughts you may have about TBI. Having owned and maintained a'67 Corvette for a few years, I know that I am never going to be gifted in the tuning department... Also, if I am lucky enough to be able to get a GMC it will be used immediately for a road trip of a couple of months at a range of altitudes and temperatures, so TBI would seem to make sense.

So, here's the question; is there a downside to getting a coach with TBI - or having it fitted?

Thanks in advance
Richard
No GMC yet, but fingers crossed...

Richard,
There are more than a few nice GMCs out there and available, but the penetration of electronic fuel injection as an upgrade is not real high. See if you can find one with and one without before you try to use that as a selection issue.
Even then, there is the Howell, Holly, Megasquirt and transplant sources that are all considerations.

Good Luck and tell us what you find.

Matt
