EFI parts started arriving. Fuel injectors and fuel rails from DeLorean Industries. These injectors fit on the stock k-jet injectors bungs. That's a huge advantage. Now, I have to concentrate in adapting the throttle body to the intake manifold. The throttle body (Jeep 4.0 6cyl) has the IAC and the TPS.

i have flat adapter plates to do this, but not an elbow.
Where did you get the idea to run a jeep TB? coincidence or read joes blog? I ran one on my 3.0 many years back and it worked very well.

I read Joe’s blog and consulted with him. BTW, excellent write up on his 3.0 EFI swap.
I thought about using a throttle body from a mid 2000’s Ford Taurus 3.0 V6, but the IAC valve installation would require extra fabrication. The Jeep IAC valve is already attached to the TB unit.

I'm trying to figure out how/where to install the coolant temp sensor (CLT). Many people removed the TTS and tap the adapter to 3/8" NPT.
Is the green vacuum switch (driver side of Y coolant pipe) 3/8" NPT? Or the other sensor opposite to it?

Vacuum switch has the same threading. Unscrew & replace.

Perfect. That makes things easier. I will leave the TTS in place and I'll remove the vacuum switch and install the CLT sensor.
A local shop finished the throttle body-to-manifold adapter. I used a Jeep throttle body spacer, 2" aluminum elbow, and a Holley carburetor spacer. It came out really nice. All I have to do is remove the carburetor and install the TB adapter. I will still have the ability to switch back to a carburetor if I ever have to.

I dont think those flanges are thick enough. LOL

Very thick indeed. I was thinking of shaving off at least 1/2 inch on each end.
