Hey all, i've got a brand new 455 Olds motor out of a Jet boat. Completely built inside and out and I want to use it for something fun. right now its carb'd but it's never been started, all brand new. I'm wondering if TBI or EFI would be worth the $1-3k? I might do some crawling with it, mostly looking to maybe increase MPG's a bit and make it more daily driveable
 
I wonder if a 650cfm carb would net me the mpg's i need. i want to put a 700r4 behind it. No clue on what T-Case or axles yet.
 
well tbi is a form of efi...
For a tbi converson, you should be able to get in for WAY less than $1000.
650cfm seems very tight for a stock 455 much less a built one.
I am probably the biggest 700 fanboy on this board, but you are giving it a rough life behind a Big Olds...
 
yea i mean i dont plan on romping on this thing. I honestly don't know what to put it in. I would say my yota but I'm pretty sure if I got heavy on the skinny pedal everything would just xplode and the truck would snap in half, haha
