Slant gets a Sniper EFI by the numbers.....

I watched this at about 2am. I have been on the fence about doing this to my slant. The reactions from these guys on videos like this are making me think it’s a good idea.

My 2 cents. I put EFI on my first restoration. The $1000 price tag was attractive but you quickly learn the fuel system done right can suck up almost that again. The next 3 restorations have carbs. What I have learned. Getting the EFI tuned in can be exacerbating, the only difference between the 318 with EFI and the 318 with an Edelbrock that is precisely tuned is the EFI will start instantly after heat soaking and the carb needs to crank a bit. I find nothing better about the EFI other than that. When we pack up to go for long weekend trips I have a mechanical fuel pump and a carb kit in the tool box. The carb car will get home. The EFI car what happened if the electric fuel pump goes out? I can carry one but I can’t change it easily (in tank). What if the efi unit goes bad? Do I carry a second $1000 unit or have it towed hundreds of miles home? Don’t get me wrong the FITech has been trouble free for the last 5 years but… when won’t it be?
