Anyone heard of this??

www.atomicefi.com

Looks pretty cool. Like a four wire hooks up. Pulse width fueling, so no return line too!

I read their forum on the home page, and it looks like they are way behind. I think it's definatly something I'd be interested in, but $2300.00 is a bit steep.
Think I'll wait a year or so and read some more feed back before I commit, but looks promising....

Carbs work just fine and no real improvents come from FI

IMO, 2,300 will put you well on your way to an LS swap or even an LT FI swap. I personally like the FI and can't wait to do mine. You can probably get a complete set up (engine, computer, sensors ect.) for about the same price.

I agree too. Problem is, I really prefer to open the hood of my classic vehicles and see something that at least APPEARS to be classic, as in a distributor and one coil...

Hence the appeal of this kit, the FAST EX EFI, Holley Avenger EFI, Etc

Re: Anyone heard of this??

i understand what you're saying schnorr - I'm the same way. Also consider it's a way to drive a more modern fuel system EFI that still allows retrofit to carb because it's single fuel line, etc. THAT alone might be what puts someone over the edge enough to buy this. Not me, but I'm just spitballin here....

Yeah.... It's cool alright.
I know a guy that has the FAST system in his mustang. I've heard they are a little finicky, but I could get a FAST system for 1500. That leaves 800 bucks to do something else....
