Do all fuel injected motors gas computerized

From like when they started fuel injecting these gas trucks which ones had the simplest system and can you build one even simpler ? Like do they put a lot of stuff you do not need in the brain and EFI system and can you bypass it with much better designed units like a MSD setup or something. Thanks for advice

yes, all EFI trucks have a computer of some sort to control the EFI unit.
probably the simplest unit is the holley projection unit, but it is VERY expensive.

Santa, the gift that keeps giving. Why do you mess with trucks when cruise in real style by slay? Is it like a hobby ?


So you can build motors from the ground up with way better fuel injection than the factory stuff? Is like the Holley stuff for mostly distributor motors ?

the holly projection is an alternative for people that want fuel injection on a carburated engine, but don't want to do a complete computer wiring harness transplant.
it is mostly used in 60's and 70's hot rod resto mods.

Thanks I will go read up on it, just wondering if the after market kits are better than the factory stuff ?

No they aren't, they are easier to use and install but that is because they are simpler.. less sophisticated... little more than a computer controlled carburetor.
