Thank you for sharing your experience. Based on the above I can only conclude that there is nothing inherently wrong with fuel injected FE's. The key seems to be that "guys really know their stuff".

May I ask what kind hp and torque are you getting? Are you running pump or race gas?
I saw a couple of videos on Youtube of what I think is your car. All I can say is respect to both the car and the driver.
