HEI for the 22r and 22rec
 

ok guys, does anyone know of an HEI system that can go into the 22r and/or the 22rec? i have 2 22r's and 1 22rec, between the 2 trucks i have. both trucks are 85's. one of the engines in out of a 93 and was a 22rec and got converted to a 22r. i like the carbs better than the inj. want to go to the Weber 34/34 on everything.
but back to the point, is there an HEI system for the 22r and 22rec engines?

thanks for your help and info.

here is one on a Land cruiser

and here is a thread with guys using 22r dist. on Motorcycles to get HEI..

and I'll take all your EFI stuff off your hands...
Trade you for all my fancy carbed stuff! including offy intake!

just use the one off a 22r. all it takes is a hot wire

thanks for all the help guys. i'm going to try the 22r way first and then see where this leads me. i have a spare one laying around. i'll post and let you know how it goes.

EFI for Carb
 

is it a standard carb or the 34/34 weber set-up that i want to change to?

If I were carb'd, I'd probably look at a CDI system first. If that didn't work, I'd stick with stock.
After all, what do you mean by HEI?

High-Energy Ignition system (HEI). These HEI systems fire a considerably "hotter" (increased voltage) and "fatter" (higher amperage) spark across the spark plug electrodes.

on 22rs i doubt youll see much differnece. thats for big block vhevies and fords. performnce engines. and a performnce engine 22r/22re is not.

Uh... HEI pretty much came standard on a lot of cars by the mid-80's and was by no means limited by engine size and performance. Granted I have not looked to see if these are points or not, but they're probably fine. There won't be a power difference, but perhaps a smoother-running engine and a PINCH of fuel mileage.

There were threads floating around on using the HEI from a mid 80's Chevy straight 6. THose engines were crap, they made the intake and head a one piece mold in those days.
