Product Description
Retrofitting a TPI system to an older engine isn't exactly rocket science, but it does require a good deal of knowledge not only of basic induction systems, but also computerized controls and circuitry. This info-packed manual takes you step-by-step through the fuel injection system and the retrofitting of a TPI system to a typical Chevy small block motor.

 Kinda sucks August 17, 2008
I found this book to be worthless in trying to install fuel injection on an older car
Lots of info but nothing on swapping engines January 6, 2004

If you want to swap a EFI engine into an vehicle that never had it you will need to understand how fuel injection works. This book will help you understand it in pretty good detail. However, it does not help you understand what to expect when swapping an engine. I think maybe his title "swappers guide" refers to the sections on swapping parts on a fuel injected engine for better performance. I know I need to buy a different book to find what I was looking for.
This book is a waste of money for TPI swapping November 30, 2001

If you are looking for guidance on swapping a TPI system this isn't the book for you. It is only a very general overview of the GM TPI systems. It looks like the author trolled through the available GM literature and picked up bits here and there. Most of the information is readily available on the Internet. There is no index, so finding specific topics is difficult. Half the book is devoted to the standard error codes.
Some what helpful November 12, 2000

This book is good for someone that has no idea of what they are doing. It gives a good list of part numbers and a description of how the system works and then waste the majority of the book on trouble shooting guides that look exactly like the ones in a regular repair manual. I does not give you any of the information one might be looking for when doing a SWAP.
The title should be 'Understanding Fuel Injection' September 13, 1999

I have read this book thoroughly. Although it gave me a great understanding of how TPI works, it doesn't address any of the problems you WILL run into when converting your earlier model Chevy, like my 84 ElCamino. The 50 page troubleshooting guide seems to be straight out of the GM manual. The remaining 80 some pages talk about the specific functions of the individual TPI components and their relation to each other: very comprehensive. Just don't expect any help on 'swapping' TPI to your specific vehicle.
