Hey man,
Just a quick question, what fuel pump are you running, and is it intank or external, & are you using a fuel surge tank or no?
I guess you've changed to efi fuel line? (what dia size?)

Have an external pump from a 13bt Mazda luce at the moment I've got a VL commie one to use one day also have a surge tank to put in as well. Fuel lines are stock except for the rubber parts thats all upgraded to efi grade hose.

No they don't, but last time I checked Repco listed one for a chevette. In the end I also just used a Toyota one on mine to. Metric one matched up perfectly. Couldn't tell you what car its off exactly though, possibly AE86 or something similar.

Hey Danny, how did your wiring go? Speeding up and down the driveway yet?

There are at least two, lightly differently sized, splines for the Chevette steering wheels - I actually think there're three so try before you buy, if possible, or at least make sure you can return it if it doesn't fit.

You could always try one of the UK on-line shops, like TJM or Demon Tweeks.

Hey Bulldog, wiring is going OK, It wasnt as bad as we thought. The guy I got over was a wealth of knowlage, we have the loom cut open and are working out what wires we need and what ones we can get rid of and should end up with quite a small loom in the end. Still a while from speeding up the driveway but not to far away. I cant wait to be honest.

Bah god damn electical crap my cars all good on 7psi missfires at about 6000rpm so I just stay under that. Oviously 7psi is insuficant but I cant find this god damn miss Pulled the dash out and found that the injectors power after the resistors drops to about 9.7 volts not good I'm sure bah just want to thrash it on 12 psi.

Yay Might be a bit premature but I have finnished my school work for the year so I decided to get into the Gemini today. I was just about to give up on this wasted spark nuts even been talking to my electronic wiz about going back to fuel only when I decided to free rev the crap out of the engine from under the bonet. I noticed that as it hit about 7000rpm the fuel pressure dropped from 50psi to 15psi!!. I have actually tried checking fuel pressure this way just never reved it to 7000rpm. I guess under boost its using way more fuel than free reving thats why it bogged at about 3000-3500rpm not 7000rpm. Anyway I stripped the whole fuel delivery system down bit by bit didnt take long to find an epic block sum sort of insect had blocked the pickup filter at the tank! I very quickly cleaned it and went for a test drive I was so excited when it pulled off without missing its been nearly a year and now I'm gunna go watch the fight what a great day!.
