    I am sure I asked this same question last year, but the technology is growing quickly in this area. And the answers, though few, were not all that great last year.

    So, nowadays, anyone running one?

    I have paid my taxes, and saving up for an MSD Atomic setup, since the programming seems to be on par or better than some of the other setups.

    Personally if you are going to spend that kind of money I'd go another direction.
    At the end of the racing season this is the way I want to go.............."Port" or "Direct" is the way to go................IMHO

    I am not into all that extra plumbing. Yes, good stuff, but I just want to pop off my carb, and slap on an EFI, and be done.

    No laptop, no swapping the pump, metal tubes everywhere, etc.

    Not racing, just acting like a fool on the local streets.

    That's like the new NASCAR system? Either way, it's cool!! in 10 years, carbs will be a waste of time.

    That Holley EFI was ok, but for a cool factor this knocks it out of the ball park. I have a friend with little 347 that has his on his motor (here is a picture of the motor in a XXXXX............neat stuff!!!!!!!!!!

    I agree, it may be more tuneable, and pull more power, but for doing donuts and burnouts at the local car shows, I think I will be fine with the MUCH simpler kit.

    Always buy the most complete kit, and check the real reviews from people that own them:tiphat:

    That is what I am trying to do here. I figure I would be best off asking guys who are running them on the same engine I am.

    Now off to look up the Powerjection kit (thanks Chris!)

    Nice. I have seen that one before. I need to download the instruction manual and see if I need to use their fuel pump or if my holley will work. That one is a bit less expensive than the MSD one.
