i bought mine from these guys http://www.cp-components.co.uk/product_details.asp?pid=43  its only a single point injection, so you lose about 3 mpg.  My mates have been fitting mine! :lol:   just waiting for a clear day so we can do the electrics

I'm just considering this on my 4.0 SE with Thor injection so it will be a mulitpoint system

Tinelytech were very helpful and quoted under £1K but you have to get it certified yourself.  They do supply software for you to set it up via a laptop though

Blaise quoted around £1400 including certificate, initial on the road setup and a reset after 1000mls.  I went over to see them fitting one to a P38 and it looked a very profession kit with braided fuel hoses rather than bending/flairing copper pipe yourself.  Nice fitter as well - the type of bloke who would take the time to sort you out.

I'm still undecided though - I'm just trying to get hold of an independent fitter to give me some more advice.

Depends which engine you are running as to what is suitable.
Mine is a stargas 90l tank in boot (cheap option) and a drawthrough system. Inlet on air flow meter.
Easy to fit using basic tools, drill, spanners screwdrivers etc. Electrics are simple.... ish and the plumbing is easy as they are compression fit with olives  
Leak test it with plumbers stuff and if needed (insurance) get it certified
Also they will tune it for you

We specialise in self-fit kits for fuel-injected Classic & P38 Rangies.  Not the cheapest, so turn the page now if thats what you need ...

These are proper vehicle-specific kits, with customised parts and fabrications, photo-illustrated instructions. Not a box'o'bits and some "installation hints" from eBay.  The price includes setup and LPGA certification by us - drawback is you have to bring it back to our workshop in Wiltshire.

I drive the Classic 3.9 development vehicle  

Think I remember you Matt .. have you tried Autogas Logistics at Stonehouse?

Hope that's helpful
cheers, Ross Kennedy

[blackbob]

[agent006]

Ross, are you the same Blaze gas people who used to be at Kemble?  Tried ringing a month or so ago but the 01285 number was dead....

[Rossko]

Yus, Blaze moved down the road a bit to Hullavington.

Bought my multipoint from a guy caled Mark Wain, a classic car specialist.  Been very happy with it, no loss in power at all over petrol.  MPG, don't make me laugh, it's got a 5.0 TVR engine in it, it does 10.5 to the gallon irrespective of how you drive/what you tow.

I've just bought a multipoint kit from Mark as well (on RRB's advice), all turned up yesterday so i have yet to find out how good it is... :lol:

I've got single point systems on my 3.5 rangie and on our 3.5 110 and they do help wonders with the fuel bill, but they are down on power.
