i would love to do MPFI swap. but the dizzy, resistor, intake manifold are gone.
what avail are tranny, sway bar, camshaft, valve train (springs retainer & those little thingy)

stay stock! its the way to go

you can gather all the SI parts and once you get ahold of the MPFI conversion parts then do it all at once. but if the tranny, sway bar, and camshaft is there then get it. also i think the valvetrain are the same for both dx and si its just the camshaft that is different. the sway bar makes a huge difference. but i'm also still on the way to converting to MPFI just waiting for the money to come in haha
