    the wiring was a lot simpler than I thought it would be.
    1-blk.
    2-red
    1-yellow
    everything else just plugs in...:drive:

    Too bad it's not on a Ford engine, then it might apply to more people around here.

    got a chance to check the...cold start on the Atomic EFI...yesterday.
    40 degrees...hit the key, it fired right up.
    went to 1200 RPMs for 2 secs. and dropped down to 650 RPM and set there and ran. I hopped in and took off. there was no cold start bog or anything...:thumbs2:
