Whelp, as most of you know my carb (among other things) were stolen last week. Even before that I had been kicking around the idea of going with EFI so now its kind of obvious to go the EFI route.

At this point I am leaning towards MSD's Atomic. I'm open for other suggestions though.

But what Im really curious about is the ignition and EFI system working together. I skimmed through the Atomic's installation manual and what caught my eye was the wiring diagrams. They show one setup with the typical 6AL box, but another without the 6AL box with the ECurve distributor. Does this mean I could run the Atomic, Blaster2 coil, and Ecurve distributor and avoid the expense of the 6AL box? Or would I still need the old chrome box Im running now? Maybe Im thinking about it all wrong?

What type of ignition system do you have now? Ive run the Holley sniper EFI unit with their holley dual sync distributor, worked great. I could control timing and didnt have any issues to the 5500 rpm i ran it to.
 
I have the FiTech running both injection and timing. Works flawless with an MSD two wire and an E-core coil.

I would buy again
