Avanti Injection!

[mfg]

The fuel injection unit which the Granatellis utilized on their “R5” Bonneville engine was borrowed from ……?……

1) A Corvette…..2) A Mercedes….3) An Indy Race Car…. or…..4) A Cessna Airplane

Lets guess on this one, 2. Mercedes

3)…Indy race car…FI from the Novi engines.  That made sense as Andy Granatelli had purchased the Novi engines by that point.  He only had to modify what he already possessed rather than buy from elsewhere.
