About the 1957 Chevrolet Corvette Fuel Injection

The fuel-injected C1 represents Corvette's technological awakening, trading the troublesome Carter carburetors for Rochester's revolutionary continuous-flow injection system. Only available from 1957-1962, the 'fuelie' 283 delivered genuine 283 horsepower, one hp per cubic inch was serious bragging rights in the late '50s. Harley Earl's timeless design reached peak elegance during these years, with the distinctive side coves and optional hardtop creating automotive sculpture. The Ramjet fuel injection was expensive ($484 option) and temperamental, leading most buyers toward carburetors, making genuine fuelie cars rare survivors. The 1957 model year introduced the system alongside the 283 V8, while 1962 marked the final year before the C2's debut. Concours-quality examples command serious money, with matching-numbers cars representing the pinnacle of C1 collecting.
