Firing issue

Hot start issues is one reason I finally "went" efi. In fact just yesterday/ today I got the car running again with an improved ECU. The old system was a used Holly Commander 950 --a perfectly good working system, except it's "all manual" programming, and I don't have a second person to operate the program while I drive, nor do I want to spent days on end at a dyno shop

So I just got through buying (1400 bucks) the Holley HP computer and harness. Even without final tweeking, the car now runs much better when hot. Instant starts all the time.

So far as carbs, there's been some discussion that the Ed carbs are more prone to hot start issues because the float bowls are "down" on the manifold. Best thing I did for mine before converting was to go to a rear electric pump, installed a vapor return line, and a carb heat spacer. That all helped a "bunch."
