I was looking at the EFI manifold from the GQ and GU for a project .

I have a GQ Mav carby, The wreckingyard showed me both manifolds and it was obvious that the GU manifold would not fit on the GQ . Think you should evaluate swapping the GU motor over whole.

dont forget to keep your TB42 rods for your TB45, so you can boost it!

Nothing but you need to decomp the engine to put serious oost on and the TB42 rods allow for this
