Description: "Fuelie" was the slang term used to describe any fuel injected Corvette. At that time the fuel injected Corvettes were the fastest cars on the street, road course, and drag strip. In addition to the rough exhaust note created by the high compression ratio and long-duration camshaft, gearheads could identify Corvettes with the fuel injection units by the distinctive hiss they produced at idle. Fuelies: Fuel Injected Corvettes 1957-1965 celebrates the nine years of production of the Fuellie Corvette, the Corvette engines, and the fuel-injection units that transformed the car into a performance icon. The book also covers passenger car installations (Chevrolets from 1957 to 1959. Pontiacs and Chryslers) and other fuel injection oddities.
