    Default Crossfire Throttle Body Assembly Question

    My first post on CAC. I'm working on rebuilding the CFI injector towers on my 84 vette. After taking parts in to get plastic blasted, I got the fuel meter covers mixed up. These are the plates that make up the top of the front and rear injector towers. The accumulator cover goes on the front and the pressure regulator cover goes on the rear. Which one is the pressure regulator one? One cover has a hole on the underside, the other has a slightly larger hole with four tabs sticking out. I am using a rebuild kit that includes both diaphrams.

    Thank you terry82.

    I made the changes to my injector towers placing the correct fuel meter cover in the front and rear. It shouldn't be too long before I get the bases back from being rebushed and having some borken shaft screws removed. My local machine shop is working to see if they can find sealed ball bearings instead of bushings.

    That's a good read. That's where I got the idea of the bearings/bushings upgrade from. The machine work on my bases was supposed to be two days. Its been a week and two days and the machine shop is not returning my calls . I don't care if its two weeks or a month, just let me know. Its the one part keeping this vette from running. It's time to get a backup throttle body set.
