I don't know what to tell you on this 2562 kit but want to point out that Raby 2270 is a monster and about 180 horsepower. Worked on a rebuild of one of his 18 years old engines that spun a bearing after so many years of service. I think this would save you some money.

Thanks for the input, Bob.

The more recent EFI kits seem to better tested nowadays.




There was never anything wrong with any of the aftermarket EFI stuff out there the problem was, and still is, that the configuration and tuning can be incredibly complicated and time consuming to get even remotely correct. I have seen many "professionals" continue to fail with this stuff. Even systems like Holleys that supposedly "auto tune" still require a good deal of knowledge to dial in correctly. Add to that the differences in how you should tune air cooled vs water cooled motors and even experienced "tuners" fall on their face leaving you with a ticking time bomb.

Done correctly though and modern EFI is a beautiful experience on these cars.
