Anyone know of any web sites, or other sources for a good electronic fuel injection systems for a Cleveland? Thanks for you're time.

There is a Simple Digital Systems (SDS) outfit adapted to Ford V8 applications. This version is probably best purchased from one of their largest dealers, Western Motorsports. I think it's WesternMotorsports.com but search it if not. It's basically a speed density system complete with harness, ECU & controller plus most sensors for around $1,000 to $1,200 US equivalent (they're Canadian). It needs a Ford TFI signal, so you'd need either a 302 or bigger Ford EFI distributor (no 351C choices available) with fairly minor mods to add the 351C gear & adapt to oil pump driveshaft, depending. They recommend the EFI 351W. Note that those do have the wider cap, which can present a clearance problem at the firewall/engine screen on Panteras. At least worth considering. You'd need some intake mods for injectors & the usual other fuel system components, though on Mike Dailey's site there's a picture and mention of a new Australian intake for EFI on a Cleveland. I would have explored that intake but was already committed. Also, Thomas Tornblum has an excellent web site devoted to his Pantera EFI adaptation of a 5.0 EEC-IV system on his 351C. His page is at detomaso.nu~/thomast/efi/
At least one Pantera has one (SDS system), and mine will soon. I have been very pleased so far with Western Motorsports. The manual they give you is excellent; with their harness the wiring is simple. Hopefully the finer tuning will go smoothly. Good luck. Hopefully this will give you some options that save a little money vs. the Electromotive, the Accel Gen VII, FAST, Motec, the mechanical FI, etc.

Sorry, shift the squiggle for Thomas' site. It's:

Many options. All depends on what type of system you want.
I have an independent runner system with TWM (www.twminduction.com) throttle bodies on a Redline manifold (2V heads). Injection Perfection (www.injectionperfection.com) in Sydney supplied the manifold. Kinsler and Hilborn also make throttle bodies though I don't know if they make a manifold for Clevelands. I beleive Hall Pantera has a manifold for 4V heads. The TWM's as well as many other independent runner systems use a Weber 48 IDA bolt pattern.
I use a Haltech E6K ECU with crank triggered direct fired ignition. The engine is in a GT40 replica and uses a single Hall switch and 4 magnets in the flywheel for trigger and home. No distributer at all except to drive the oil pump. Motec and Electomotive are a couple of other widely used ECU's that also have options for direct fire as well as injection.
