There are 2 possible routes to take with this, you could use all OEM parts stripped from a donor vehicle and customize it for use in the '64, or you could purchase a complete stand-alone system from one of the various aftermarket vendors. The first route would be cheaper if you have a suitable motor, and the second would be easier if your motor is heavily modified or one that was never offered with EFI. What motor do you have?

I have a 302 don't remember the year, I bout the car for a future project two years ago, it will be rebuilt before install.the hole job will be just a little different,the 64 will be built on top of a 79 custom frame so the base will take some redoing of the mounts and alignment. Though that still is a future job, still playing with the 77custom for my son to take to college.
