I have a Howell kit in my CJ7. I can highly recommend them. It passed smog with no problems.

Chevrolet C10 fan motor mounting holes were in alignment. Amazing how parts are often interchangeable. 👍😊

Nice work in the shop and the video! I just started a rebuild on an 84 CJ7 with a swapped out 4.2l FI. Over the years the mods have piled ontop of each other with no one taking the time to do anything but the minimum required to get the machine running again. It looks like the wiring was done as a 9th grade science project. UGH! By examining the images of your video I am able to find the clues that will help me out of this mess! Good work!

I used Howell for the 502 I dropped in the motorhome. It was a good kit, but had some tuning issues. I ended up driving it to Howell and we spent the better part of the day fixing the tune. That gave me a pretty good education on tuning. We got it close, but over the next year I played with it and dialed it in. I ended up sending the refinement back to them, as they needed for another 502 they were doing.

I installed the Howell EFI system on my '86 CJ7 and it works like a champ and allowed me to finally pass the California smog test. What's great about the EFI is the amount of wiring and vacuum hoses I got to remove from the engine. My only complaint about Howell was the installation manual and photos; a lot of reading and the photos were not in color and not super clear. But their support guy, Troy, is awesome and was a great help during the install. There are not a lot of install videos on YT or on the Howell website which would have been nice.

Great job!! I have a difficult family with Germany, and the Second World War. My first family member in America was in 1863, and he actually fought for the North in the American Civil War. Anyways, he is my 2nd great grandfather. My grandfather had 15 siblings. His oldest two brother were in the Great War, and both survived. But one of their uncles would not “Americanize”, and stayed true to Germany in all ways. Well, my grandfather and his next brother were in the Second World War. My mothers maiden name was Neinmann, but turned to Newman in 1917. So, my connection to Germany has been on many different levels, and in many different ways. I took German in college, and my family, to include my wife and mine, still eat many traditional meals. But I think your channel is great! But this was so much better than I would’ve imagined!!

Great episode. Wish I never sold my 85 CJ7, but my JL is awesome. Move the compressor outdoors (build a tiny shed, can also be a good waste fluid room) and install radiant heat to avoid your noise issues. Also the radiant is cheaper and will heat everything evenly, no up and down cycling.
