TG - I can't believe how hard it is to find those 454 high pressure injectors. I think we are all convinced those are the right ones. GM part # 25170301 VP # 3857398. The TJ17's don't directly cross to that #, but I looked at a ton of specs and cant find reliable info about either.
One more question, hopefully BUP will know this one. How do I know what IAT sensor to use? What sensor did VP require dealers to install during a MEFI IV conversion? I bought one at NAPA that fits, but I took it back out because I don't know if its the right one. Should I just use the part number from a 5.7 GXI with a MEFI IV computer?
Thanks again everyone. Hopefully we are getting close.

The # you gave me 400-1136 is for a MPI #. I think you meant 500-2000. Either way, I can't get Walker products thru any local warehouses.

SB I meant 5001136 or 5002016. The 5001136 was the marine application.
I could order them through RockAuto, but I want to wait on those until I am 100% sure I have no other options with injectors. Thoughts on the TJ17's or finding 454 high pressure injectors?

Can you get a degree wheel on the crank and pull a valve cover to check the number one cylinder intake centerline? That will tell you what you need to know on the cam installation.

TG - I looked there before and didn't see the VP 3857398 or GM 25170301. The VP # mentioned is for a 4.3L, but it has one unmentioned 5.7 app as you pointed out. Then the Merc # is for a few types of motors, including 5.7's. SB and I talked about this last night... You would think VP and Merc would use the same injectors... but who knows if that's true.

Lunch break - I have not kept up with this - sorry and just throwing this out for whatever reasons but wanted to ask - are you sure you are not one tooth off with stabbing the distributor when reassembly of this engine.
are sure the distributor and gear is in very good shape as well plus all related parts internally of it are in proper working order ?

I am trying to find out what the correct VP # is for my IAT sensor, since I cant just go to my parts diagram. Should I look at 5.7 GXI's with MEFI IV motors?

I am not familiar with how to do this. I thought about it more, and I think I will be able to pull the timing cover off, clean up the silicone, and get it back on without removing the oil pan (and engine). Maybe I will have to loosen it a bit in the front if anything. But this sounds like an easier path... I need to take off that banks valve cover anyway for a slight lifter noise. I think it needs adjusting after running a bit.
