SOLEX 4A1 to Holley TBI

[Hit Man X]

I bet I can find more parts for GM TBI and HEI ignition than you ever could for a carburetor or CIS "in the middle of nowhere"

The main body of my 4A1 is warped, so any repair is futile. I will figure out the TBI, I just wish I understood electronics more than I do currently for the damned distributor portion.

I'm almost positive one can remove the ignition related code from the TBI programing. It seems to me a good vacuum advance distributor with a breakerless pickup and an MSD or Mallory ignition box would be more than plenty for an M110. Computer timing control would be nice, but it'd complicate things.

Daewoo cars (models Racer, Espero) had GM TBI on them (1 barrel) in the Philippines, 2 barrels are impossible, I have to buy from the US, if you mind if one of you will help me in this.

I just found that Hot-Spark thread Mike D. pointed out to me, I think that may be the ticket for me.

My 92 Dodge 360 has one of those Holly TBI units on it, the 2 barrel version. Seems to run well enough, it's very responsive.
