New from Chicago... looking to do a TBI on my 62 Vette
Hi all, just giving a quick intro to me and my reason for stumbling on this site. Decided to list out some fixes and mods I'd like to do to my 62 Vette, and EFI ended up near the top. The car has been in the family since 1969 and I "inherited" it in 1982 at 4 years old when my dad met an untimely death. So I've been driving it since 96 when I got my license, thankfully my mom trusted me to do so at age 16...
So since I want to keep things simple, clean, and relatively hidden under the hood, I think I'm going to drop a TBI under the stock air cleaner. I'm pretty handy under the hood and in the junkyard, so I've been browsing the forums here, learning which years and parts I need to make it happen. Sounds like a 93 Chevy van with a 350 might be the best bet for my 327 conversion? I've still got plenty to learn.
Well, here's a couple pics of my somewhat unique 62 Vette, my dad built this car from 69-82, I guess in the 70's it didn't seem all that crazy to go sorta custom on a C1 Corvette. Old photos are from 1981, newer ones from 2012.
