Megasquirt II ---> First Step in Fuel Economy Build

I am planning on converting to EFI with the hope of increasing fuel economy. My current setup is:

72 C-20, Stock 350 build with Edlebrock Performer Intake #1408 Carb, TH350, 4.11 Rear, 235/75/R16 tires. Currently getting 10mpg city 13 highway.

The pickup is my DD. I have been researching Megasquirt II as the EFI controller with GM TBI retrofit. The Megasquirt II also has the ability to control my HEI.

After going EFI, the next step will be 700-R4 (or 200-4R) install, followed with a 350 rebuild down the road.

For those who are interested, you can read the manufacturer's carb conversion on SBC here: http://www.diyautotune.com/tech_arti...part1-nova.htm

The setup seems easy. Does anybody have experience with the Megasquirt? I would appreciate any advice, experience, etc.
