How To- EFI early 22r
I wound up getting a 22r for cheap, figured I could put my efi on and drop it in, turns out it had an 81 or 82 head on it, so it didn't have the correct holes to mount the intake.
My first attempt was a bracket going across a ouple bolt holes, didn't work, started sucking air when warm.
did alot of research, and 99.9% of it came up to change the head, definitely don't want to do that.
came across this
and i figure I can do that.
soo, went to industrial and found a piece of 1/2"x6"x18" for $18 and traced the gasket
started drilling
cut to size on my table saw with a carbide blade
drilled bolt holes, tapped the ones that needed to be tapped, countersunk 3 holes
got a bit for porting cyl heads to open up the intake holes
mounted
assembled
had to lengthen the intake support bar
haven't driven it yet, but no intake leaks yet, and every bolt hole is being used.
total ~ $30 with gaskets.
