Happy New Year to all RiVeters
I have a used (1230h since new, but 30 y/o) O-320-E2A Lycoming that I will certainly completely overhaul before installing on my RV-9A.
As part of the rebuilding process, is it realistic to think of converting it to Fuel Injection? I'm already a strong believer in Electronic Ignition and would really like to combine it with (E?)FI.
I'm planning long ahead, but I intend to work on the engine while waiting between subkits delivery.
Could anyone here direct me to appropriate information, builders sites, manufactures, etc.. that would help me make my choice for an appropriate solution, if one exists in my specific configuration.
I.e. will I need to change the intake pipes, or drill them to put the injectors?
Thank you
