Location: Florida		Just for your information, the incomplete Electrojector system that Tom White purchased a few years ago for his 1958 DeSoto Adventurer cost him "a five-figure sum". And THEN he spent hundreds of hours restoring it!

Here's the story of his car, if you haven't read it already:

Location: Under the X in Texas		These pics are of two disassembled EFI units from Chrysler 300Ds.  I'll just say that the fellow that owned them has passed away and they are owned by the heir.  Yes, my heart was beating rather rapidly at this sight.

Each engine series would have needed its own intake manifold.  The injectors, air cleaners, trunk fuel pump and electronics probably were all shared other than nozzle size (or whatever you call it in injectors) relative to the cubes.  Distributor related to the engine series also.  What is the part number on that distributor - what is the application per parts book?

Trunk round access panel to in-tank fuel pump shown below.

I tried a search for that thread, but I couldn't find it. I joined the list about that time, but I can't recall that discussion. That is something that I probably would have keyed in on right away! How do I find that again? Does anybody remember any details?

That photo made me smile! That wood block, the triangle, I found in my trunk as well - thinking, that it was a homemade wheelblock - throwed it away.
A week went by, then it suddenly stroke me; Ah man, you trew away an original piece (however a little cheesy). Went out and turned a pile of woodscrap around and - found it again. This would have had left scars on my for the rest of my life - throwing away a piece in ignorance.

I seem to remember it was on the mailing list side... I too have wondered what ever happened to that car/member.

Ha!  Leave it to eBay!  That might explain the flex tube around the wiring at the upper left hand corner of the image.  I was trying to look at the image and see how it fit into the images earlier in this thread.  I gues this would be for a 1958 De Soto if you swapped the mill in your De Soto for a 2006 GMC Sierra!
