New dash and Holley Sniper installed....wow!

Man it's just hard to justify the price at this point. Would be nice not having to crank the engine over and over due to percolation and just knowing that it's going to fire up on first crank and be close to dialed in all the time but the cost is huge.

Blueprint engines said they'd honor the original $800 price on the Sniper if I decided to go with it when my engine is ready. That's over $400 lower than what the unit costs now. Then its $550 + shipping for the tank and fuel pump and then $800 for the hyperspark. Probably a couple hundred more for the return line and any other odds and ends required. Now I'm at over $2600+ for EFI on a weekend driver. The benefits sound so nice but I just don't know if it's worth that kind of change.
I personally have thought about EFI a ton. But living out west it doesn’t get too cold and my carb has worked great. Takes some work to start in the freezing but 2600$ to me is too much.
