FiTech Fuel injection

Hello all,
I'm thinking really hard about running the FiTech fuel injection system on my '68 GMC with a '69 427 that's been bored out to 433" (+0.030" over). It's got a Skat forged crank, Forged rods and Icon forged pistons, running 10.5:1 compression with 105.9cc rectangular port heads. It's got an Edlebrock RPM Air-Gap intake & HEI distributor. Since this engine could see over 600 HP, likely with a different cam, I was leaning towards the FiTech MeanStreet system that's rated up to 800HP. I like that the 600 HP system can adjust timing, but don't want my fuel injection system to be the limiting factor on my power. I live at 6,800 ASL and would like to freely drive the truck down to lower elevations without constantly tuning the carb. So, that's why I've been looking so hard at these systems.

Does anyone run one or have experience with them? They seem pretty slick. Just want to ask before dropping $1,500 on the MeanStreet with the fuel management system.

Thanks for any input!

Nik
