Smile books.....

Chris - I might suggest How to Tune and Modify Engine Management Systems by Jeff Hartman. (ISBN 0760315825) It's available from Amazon,
but probably any other Book Store (Barnes & Noble, Borders, etc.) can order
it as well. There really isn't a definitive book on EFI/management systems but Hartman's
probably comes as close as any of them.
There are plenty publications dealing with
specific OEM systems, GM, Ford, etc. but there are few generic
books on the subject. Funny thing is
that there are considerably more publications dealing with constant flow
systems (Hilborn, Enderle, etc.) and
mechanical systems. (Lucas, Telecamit-
Jackson, Bosch K-Jetronic, etc.) then ones
dealing with electronic systems.
As far as material on injector location/placement goes, that's probably beyond the scope of most
commonly available books. The technical archive of the
SAE
Society of Automotive Engineers probably has a number of
engineering papers on that very subject. But if you go to their site and
search with the keyword "fuel injection," you'll get over 27,000 hits.
So you will probably have to narrow the
search with different keywords. You
can order whatever engineering papers
you want on-line.
