Post by: aviation officer on October 09, 2010, 06:23:58 AM

Fuel injection all the way.

X2 If you can get all the parts, it's well worth the investment

Are you looking to swap the engine to a Samurai?  If not the Sidekick should already have fuel injection.  Unless it's a rare 89.

Well yeah, but the 16-valve MPI is far better than the 8-valve TBI.

True, the extra hp is nice.  But I don't think it is really worth swapping them.
