Default Anybody using Holley Avenger EFI or HP EFI?

After looking at numerous multi-point efi setups I'm thinking about going with the Holley Avenger EFI or HP EFI. Was just wondering if anybody out there is using one of these on their cars and what they thought of it. I also considered Accel DFI as a second choice.

69 with 496ci currently running a Holley 830CFM 'Nascar' carb tuned by KP carbs. I get roughly 6-8mpg. I not really concerned about mileage but I do want a better idle for my lopey cam, better cold starts, and instant throttle response.

I've got the HP on my 555". I posted a lot of info here on it if you search on it. I'll tell you everything I know about it. In fact there is a guy from the Chevelle Forum coming to my house in a couple of hours to look at the install on my car and I'm going to let him play with the software so he can see for himself.

I back to back tested it on the dyno against my Dominator an am writing some magazine articles on it right now.

Sounds good. I'll do a search on it and read up over the weekend. If I have any specific questions I'll let you know. And please post any news/testing results you come up with.

What magazine will the articles be in?

Thanks,

Jim

They'll be in Auto Enthusiast (formerly Corvette Enthuisiast).

Ck the EFI section in the Performance section on Chevelleforum.com for a lot of good reading also.

Here's Bob and his son Brandon this afternoon playing with the EFI.
