thinking about the new msd atomic efi system

I agree,if you can not work on the carb than a efi system will really leave you out in the dark.If you drive it away from home and have a problem I would say you will have a better chance of finding parts at a store for your carb.I don't think there are any off the shelf parts for the efi system.

I would buy a new carb or adding a choke to the carb you have now.
Lots of books and articles on tuning your car,I can but a lot of tools and books for what they get for an efi system.:glasses7:
