The EFI myth

I have both brand new Sniper and FiTech units still in the box and I am on several Sniper/FiTech forums. The problems with bad ECUs both right out of the box and dying Within days/weeks/months, faulty/dead sensors, RFI (usually owner’s/installer’s fault) far outnumber the success stories. I have taken precautions when constructing my engine compartment harness for possible RFI. That said I am concerned about installing one of them in my 273 Dart and it dying on my 400 mile trip to say the Nationals. If they were as reliable as modern FI systems, i wouldn’t worry. I wouldn’t hesitate to take our 29 year old 93 FI 3.9 Dakota anywhere - been rock solid since new with the FI. Anyway i am thinking maybe I should go with the Edlebrock i bought in 84 which never gave a lick of trouble. Just my musings concerning FI
