Default The latest EFI kits

Who has what, how was the install, what was the overall cost plus labor, if you had it done and what are the pros and cons?

I have the atomic EFI on the mustang, and the Sniper on my bronco. Both are fairly easy to install. I dont think going to a shop is necessary. Its a pretty straight forward install. You just need to take your time.

A couple things:
You will need to work on your fuel system. If you live in a hot climate, I recommend an internal fuel pump with a fuel return line.

Dont get frustrated, just take your time

make sure all your wiring connections are quality. Dont half *** them.

a good battery makes a big difference

Although I had Fitech on my bronco for a while I do not recommend it. I had a lot of issues with it until i died and fitech will not do anything to remedy it. Even though it had to be sent in 4 times within the first year.

The Sniper has been awesome

I would echo these sentiments. I had a Fitech on my 32 Ford with a 351 Windsor and it was crap. The Sniper is probably the best on the market.

FiTech quality has dropped off for sure. I plan on going with the Sniper kit on my truck once I get it all ready and we may use it on my dads 66 I'm restoring once we v8 swap it.
