YES...it is obvious that EFI is better....seeing how every car is now made that way for obvious reasons.

It throws some people into a 'tail spin'.

He is OBVIOUSLY on MISSION to get this working and not use any advice from others....so HE can say that the advice was wrong and HE fixed it. I have to appreciate guys like him because 'they' keep me in business....it allows me to spend time ripping crap off a car and get it working correctly. Who knows...the next place he may live in the up coming month may be in my city....

Everybody stay tuned so we all can get 'schooled' on this. I know I am waiting for the results.
