Hmmm. That's different. I don't have anything against the idea, but I'm concerned that there would be very little interest in such a specific catagory. Perhaps if it were lumped in with other modifications that would attract enough attention to warrant a new section.

We have C3, C3 factory correct resto, and C3 cars and parts for sale.
What I might suggest is a catagory referred to as C3 MODIFIED CORVETTES.
That way, the TPI tuners can post in there as well as anyone else that prefers to modify their C3's rather than have a factory correct C3.

What's the general concensus on that idea? Maybe I'll post a new thread based on this, with a poll.

I've tried to split the C3 discussion forum in the past and it got shot down two times in the past. Currently, I think there is only about 8-10 of us TPI'er and 30+ FI cars. I'm in. :cheers:

:iagree: as our C3's get older many of us are looking for more reliable fuel systems than the carbs.

I'm also in on this idea. I'm working on the conversion over the next couple of months (a lot of other work too). I could certainly use the collected experience of those who have done it before me.

The regular C3 forum moves too quickly sometimes for everyone interested to see the threads. :):)

I think spliting off from the general discussion section would limit the people viewing the threads. People who would have information to share would not have to go to two areas regularly...

As for not being able to see the threads because the forum moves so fast, I agree, but the search function is good at finding items of a specific interest. If a common phrase could be agreed upon, it would be even easier. Something w/ 3 letters like TPI or EFI...

A section for fuel injection would be awsome. Finding this sight has been very helpful in many of the things I've done.
