Default Fuel Injection for 2Litre Pinto

Hey guys hope you could throw some advice or knowledge my way. I wanna fuel inject my standard pinto engine. I looked at buying a seirra manifold along with th following;

JE Camira Delco Computer
Complete Camira Loom and Sensors
Camira EFI Fuel Pump
Camira Dizzy
Sierra Dizzy
Complete Camira Injection manifold (for parts ie Throttle Body, injectors, fuel pressure reg)
Sierra Injection manifold
Sierra Fuel Rail
Sierra Injectors
Camira Injectors
Separate Sierra Injector loom (might be of use?)
Camira Coil pack
Spark leads

Is this everything i need. What tpe of knowledge do i need to install this ? Will i get much of a performance gain. Pros, cons ?? Is it really worth it ? Fuel economy etc

Cheers

I wouldn't bother with the camira crap, the only reason to use the delco and camira stuff is it's easier to tune on a turbo or modified engine, if you're keeping the motor standard just use the complete sierra system. It will all bolt straight on and there are only 3 wires to connect, from the injection loom, to get it all running and you don't need to modify the dizzy or anything for it to work.
As far as installing it, it's quite easy, most of the plugs only fit what they're supposed to plug into then you need to run a wire to the EFI fuel pump which mounts just infront of the tank, mount the computer inside and make up an air cleaner or airbox.
I didn't notice much more power than carby but it's heaps smoother and more economical.
Hope that helps, here's a pic in a MK2 RS2000.

Yeh 350 Holley much easier to tune than a Weber. I was thinkin of twin webers but then it just guzzles fuel and must be kept in sync with each other. The List goes on....

350 Holley is the way to go!
