For what it is worth, the SBC requires the short 60's water pump to fit without moving the radiator. The V-6 would be no problem. I have used my C-1 for about 6 years with the 350/SM 420/4.89/11.00-16 combo. I believe fuel milage is in the 11 range. It has the early analog Holley Projection fuel injection setup and HEI. A system capable of closed loop with an O-2 sensor is now available I believe. The Howell EFI route is good as it uses stock GM TBI components. I have been toying with the idea of putting this system on my 360 powered WC-53 but the Q-jet works so well near sea level that I haven't bothered yet (still scrounging parts). Do I go to some prison for having a Q-jet on a Dodge motor instead of a plastic Thermoquad? (just kidding)
