Throttle Body fuel injection for OMC 4.3L cobra?

At first we thought we had a loose wire, but now we think the carb needs a rebuild, specifically, adjusting the float in the carb. So; we have a few options, rebuild ourself, have someone rebuild, or buy a new/rebuilt carb.

That got me thinking -- years ago; I had a mustang and put in "throttle body" fuel injection which worked nicely & improved response & millage.

Does anyone know of a kit that work in a marine environment?

Also; the points were just replaced last year and already show serious pitting signs -- has anyone done this:

For the price of all the components -- and never having to adjust dwell & points again; it doesn't sound that bad -- except for getting the old distributor out w/o moving the engine....

Holley makes a TBI marine unit.

For the distributor, just get a Pertronix breakerless kit - under $100.00.

Got a lead on it? I couldn't find it.

I called them, they didn't have something for the 4.3L cobra -- I asked about "GM 4.3L" and they weren't "positive" on hte fitment.

I've used petronix on a lot of rigs -- so that was actually my 1st choice.

Thanks -josh
