Electronic Fuel Enjection

is a computerized fuel metering system designed to deliver fuel more effeciently
than a carburator system.

The 454SS (And Chevy trucks alike) use the EFI. The EFI System uses a throttle body
to deliver the fuel in precise, metered amounts. The throttle body recieves input
from the Electronic Engine Contols and delivers the precise amount of fuel required
into the intake manifold.

in contrast, a carburator mechanically delivers fuel in relation to the load and speed
of the engine. It is more difficult for a carburator to adjust quickly and effeciantly
ti different variables, so perfect carburation is difficult to maintain.
