FIRST TPI FOR SALE

I have a complete FIRST tpi for sale. Plenum, runners, manifold, throttle body, fuel rails, 42 lb injectors, MAP sensor, all brackets PLUS 730 ECM with EBL Flash P4, complete wiring harness, and computer distributor. Bought a while ago but never put it on my 69 Camaro. Frankly, Im just not interested in all the work to convert to EFI anymore. $1600 and I’ll cover shipping. You can text me at 248-600-3027

Re: FIRST TPI FOR SALE

If I only had $1600, this would be perfect for the 385 Stroker.

I don't know you well enough to insult you......OH, you are meaning not to insult you with a stupid offer! My, bad. I'm just giving you a free bump. And wishing that a money tree would finally grow in my yard.

Re: FIRST TPI FOR SALE

Thanks for the bump. Well, you know how selling things online can get. Evidently there is no market for tpi anymore. Everybody is probably going to LS motors.

Re: FIRST TPI FOR SALE

Yeah. Sold for less money. Only had half the stuff that mine had. If I don’t sell it, I’ll put it on my motor. Just surprised at the lack of interest.

no dyno results no one ever mentions how they perform nothing no real advertising...

I hope I can get some good ETs. And I'll do some documentation on the build and how it performs maybe that will help sell these..lol

Not me, my wintertime engine build will be a 385 Stroker with a HSR........unless you give me a FIRST TPI as an early Christmas present.

Sigh, for me it's lack of money, not lack of interest. I kinda drooled the first time I went to the FIRST TPI website.

Re: FIRST TPI FOR SALE

Try eBay, there are more fees associated, but it will be exposed to a larger buying pool. I sold one last week for $1584, cleared $1453. Mine included a polished intake, injectors, Howell harness and a ‘7730. Yours is more appealing with the EBL so you should be able to get more.

Re: FIRST TPI FOR SALE

How did you like the FIRST? Why’d you sell it? Just curious. I have to a lot to my 69 that I’m just not sure will be worth the pain. I could just get my Demon carb dialed in and call it a day

Re: FIRST TPI FOR SALE

I never installed it. Decided to do an LQ9/T56 in that particular project. It was huge and seemed very well engineered, I feel it would be great on the street. I just did what so many car guys do...changed direction.

Re: FIRST TPI FOR SALE

What style is the unit? As in painted, polished, cast aluminum etc. Assume since you didn't put it on the car it still has all the gaskets?

Re: FIRST TPI FOR SALE

You will need gaskets. Base is glass beaded aluminum, runners powder coated matte black, plenum is brushed satin. Throttle body is being matched to plenum. Rails are as FIRST made them. Powder coating is easy to remove if you don’t want it.
