Seems to make that $/hp not cost effective unless serious tinkerer.

Soon as I have some rain in forcast will start, clam on.


You can potentially gain good power by using an EFI, but as you noted, it comes at a high cost.


I say if you intend to add other mods such as exhaust/intake/lower pulley size, then going EFI ain't so bad all things considered.

If you just don't care about max power then keep the $$

The system will at least have some resale value. You can resell it if you don't like it and recoup most of the initial costs. I guess that's a plus.
