I'm helping out a friend who replaced the factory TBI on his 94 GMC with an aftermarket Holley TBI. I used my DataMaster software to see how things worked out. Seems the Holley TBI is running rich. I've reprogrammed PROM so the fuel is 70 lbs per hour and adjusted the fuel maps. Anyone else have a similar experience when using a Holley TBI? dave w

OK just got my head on the block and ready to fire up. BUT two questions. One- the cam rotates just fine assembled. the cam in it is a 2.5 TBI which has more retard ground in it that the 2.2 tbi. Should my cam be advanced to bring my timing up to the stock 2.2 tbi spec? I have the adjustable cam gears so no big deal. Second- I have a new timing belt, tensioner, and an ...

I checked the voltage at the injector plug and it peaked at around 9 volts ...
