Re: FiTech Fuel injection

Looks like Fitech created an even a more economical option. $687.

Re: FiTech Fuel injection

For some reason I still feel a little uneasy going long distance with fitech.
My thoughts are to keep a carb behind the seat with some simple tools. I think I could easily swap back to carb on the road to tide me over until I get back home.
Thoughts?

Re: FiTech Fuel injection

fuel pump setup ? if only efi HIGH psi then carb no good unless you bring regulator and return line from it to tank .

i have close to 4k miles daily driving / plowing snow / towing trailers with my edelbrock pro flo 4 and she is GREAT ! . . . that holley sniper i had for 500 miles of PURE hell no thanks never again . i will not support any of there products or brands anymore the way i was treated .

Re: FiTech Fuel injection

Mine is with the fuel command center. So I would just reroute the line from the mechanical fuel pump to the carb.

Re: FiTech Fuel injection

I'm with sweetk30. I **** canned that POS Sniper and went back to carb. I had zero problems with my original Pro-flo 10+ years running. I will never give Holley another dollar.

Re: FiTech Fuel injection

maybe holley and msd use the same IAC since there both owned by the same company and holley has lots of problems with them from stuff i have read .
