NO limitations on powerwith EFI. You can build any power range you need with it. I'm putting a new combo together right now for a blown 351W and tune two race cars with EFI (one stock ford EFI and the other F.A.S.T) and I really am thinking of trying the new CSU carb. If you realy still like the EFI setup like I do then have a look at this http://www.retrotekspeed.com/. That carb is EFI with a computer and the sensors. From what I have read it even adjusts the fuel pressure buy modulating the fule pump (electric).

Mass Flo looks interesting, has any one used this setup? if so how would yourate it. I want to keep a vintage look, and I like the dependability of a FI. Something else, I have thought about a turbo of twin turbo, will this work if I decide to use turbos? How much for a hilborn efi, the other site is down.

like what evryone said the carb is easy, but there are more choices for a efi setup if ur going with a f/i setup.
