Another "Is Fuel Injection a Worthwhile Upgrade?" Question

Here's an article.
ZDDP: When, Where, What, Why, How?

"In 1992, an API-rated SH oil contained 1,200 parts per million (ppm) of phosphorus; in 1996 SJ contained 1,000 ppm. It was not until 2001, when the rating went to SL, that we all started to see camshaft problems appear.

So appears to be mid 90s, and they still currently make vehicles without roller camshafts in OHC, if it's designed around it, it will work. Just takes materials/coatings.




Yeah, I have the same experience. The amount of people that talk to me about the EFI and the T56 is just massive.

Cats and roller lifters go together. Simple as that.

I really don’t care how many guys build EFI. I hope everyone does it. Still no skin off my ***.

The OP’s original question was is it worth it. I said no, and some of **** yourselves blind. I sat and by that, and call bullshit on carb icing, idle issues and that a carb can’t be made to compete with EFI relatively easy. In fact, I know there are a couple of guys here who have worked with guys on this forum through PM’s to work out carb issues and from what I hear, with worthwhile results.
