Hi Ken, 
 I converted an old Enderle unit for my Hemi. I'm
using an Electromotive Tec II system for the ignition
& fuel brains. I installed bungs in the injection
manifold, I retained the metering block & hid the map
sensor inside to look 'old school'. Bought some fuel
rails & 55lb.hr. injectors & got the old Hilborn air
horns from Kramer's. The whole thing cost me less than
2 grand so far. The only expenses I still have to go
through is the labor charge from the Electromotive
technician who will map it all out for me. He
estimates it to be 6-8 hours labor.
