Default FiTech EFI install

Just got my 67 coupe in the shop for a FiTech EFI kit install with new gas tank with in-tank pump. I was tired of all the Carburetor issues I was having with the supercharged engine and decided to modernize the car and make it more drivable. I'll update with results once the work is completed and dyno tuned and share the pros and cons of the swap. All together, the cost was roughly 2k with install and if it gives me the confidence that I could drive the car longer distances and not worry about getting stuck, it'll be absolutely worth every penny.

It's the Paxton Novi 1200 Supercharger, passenger side setup. Running 7lbs of boost. We'll see what it's like after the dyno tune.

I just put the FiTech EFI on my mainly stock 289, as I was sick and tired of adjusting it as I live at 7000 feet elevation, and commonly take it down to 1500 feet or less. I absolutely love this system!!! Not cheap, but worth every penny.

How did the FiTech EFI and Paxton Novi 1200 end up working out for you? Any mods to the Paxton needed to run with the EFI instead of the original carb? Cheers!
