Anybody know what year range of the GM 4.3L vortec would make a good candidate for the YJ? If I go this route, it will likely be the GM auto or 5spd and 231C that comes with the engine.

I am trying to work out the wiring on my buggy, and are only able to get the motor to fire when we squirt in carb cleaner. We have 'heard' that the one injector on the top of the CPI vortec engines can go bad if left to sit for a few years. Mine has been sitting not running for almost 2 now, so we are suspect of it.

Hi guys I have seen multiple references to using 19lb for motorsport injectors as an upgrade to the factory ones in the L29 vortec motors. They are suppose to be of a better design and the injector spray is wider and more efficient. I realize that they are 19lbs @ 3bar and at 4bar which is what the L29 runs on there 22.5lb/hr hence right where the factory injectors are rated. With the ...
