okay so ive been searching and searchign and searching and ive still got a few questions about the top feed conversion on the 96 sunfire wit 2.2

i know the manifolds from the 96 - 99 are kinda interchangeable but what year model is everyone getting that other fuel rail off of because ive been junkyarding and cant find it.

will my stock injector wires hook up to my new 440cc injectors?

as i stated earlieer i have a 96 sunfire. will i have to do a full wiring harness swap from a 97 + (OBDII) to tune it with hptuners?

spacer will need to be made custom for my throttle body cable to clear with the other fuel rail.

and for someone who has done this before how much of a pain is it for my fuel linesto coinside with the other fuel rail?

there will probably going to be mroe questions as we go along and ill be working on this for a while im planning on boosting it with a t28 garrett turbo and frunning 8psi.

You need the rail from a 98-02 (plastic manifold). Grab as much of the fuel lines from this as you can as well. You can just cut your stock lines (where they are rubber) and couple the lines with a barbed fittings and hose clamps. Also grab the 98-02 injector connectors (pigtails); you can splice these into your harness (make sure to check the impedence of your new injectors!).

The '96 and '97* use the same sensors, so you don't need the entire harness, just the part going into the ECU. Using pin-outs for both ECUs, you can cut and splice wires to the new ECU. I believe MadJack did this somewhat recently, so he might have more info.
*note that '96 is also OBD2.

Some people seem to need a spacer, so don't. But, there's many ways to do the conversion...
