Question: computer sys.

[freestyleaudio1]

Hi Guys,
somewhat of a newbie , I have an 81 that had a bunch of motor prob's when I got it , I am redoing the top half (new intake & carb + headers )
trying to get some more info on the computer sys.- loosing it will cause prob's with my Tranny ??? any info would be helpfull !!

You want to try and keep the CCC system, it works very well and is always cheaper to fix than ditch. The tranny control is the least of your losses without it. No other carburetor can give you the performance and efficiency of the E4ME, and if you replace it with something else, you must also replace the distributor, which is also a good unit. Many times people who don't understand the system just throw it all out, spending big $ and end up with a downgraded car when the only problem was that the 28 year old electrical connections needed to be cleaned.

God bless, sensei

Sensi is right about keeping the stock setup. I had my doubts about the E4ME but once i worked out the bugs I haven't had any issues!
