Tom,
Can you provide some specifics on the cam profile, how the setup performs on cold start, hot start, throttle tip-in, and part-throttle acceleration? How difficult was it to tune & did you have to use a dyno to dial it in? How or why was Fast EFI selected vs Electromotive or Motec? I have a similar engine configuration as this one, and I'd consider converting to an EFI setup if I could find someone who is unequivocably happy with it and would be willing to share their formula for success. So far the 4 or 5 people I have spoken with (or helped out) have spent countless hours trying to get their EFI to be smooth for street use. It seems as if most can get cold start, idle and WOT to work well, but have never got the "middle" perfectly tuned. Thanks for your response.


BTW, don't paint the car...if mine were aluminum, it wouldn't be wearing paint either.
