FiTech EFI system
I decided on the Tanks Inc option as opposed to waiting for the FCC any longer. Got the entire setup (new tank, in tank pump, and new sending unit) for $500 even. Only $18 for standard shipping and rec'd it in two days. Very impressed. Tank is silver powder coated, really nice.
A little more work to install the tank but my FiTech was already installed so once I ran a new return line I was good to go. For now I just used Earl's Super Stock fuel line, I'll probably use solid or braided later to make it look better (winter project).
My car: '67 Barracuda 383 Edelbrock 7194 cam, 2800 stall, 4.11 gear. Had a Edlebrock Perfromer 750cfm carb.
Ok so I got it installed last night, primed it as the instructions say and it fired right up. Initially it was a little hard starting and idle was pretty rough. Adjusted the idle screw, rpm was a little unstable at first (up and down). Once it ran for a little bit I hit the throttle and the response was instant! Never experienced that before with my carb. Took the Barracuda for a ride and OMG what a difference! I thought the carb was pretty good before but the FiTech EFI put it to shame. The car took off so smoothly and accelerated beautifully. Immediate difference. My buddy took the ride with me and noticed it as well. After about a 20 minute drive I stopped completely and jumped on it, holy crap off the line was so much better. Laid down a great patch. My tires never squealed like that from a dead stop before, I would have to lock the front brakes some before taking off like that. I will say this, the FiTech has exceeded my expectations so far (knock on wood). I have a ways to go as far as breaking it in but if the system runs like this and is reliable over the long haul I can't imagine ever wanting to back to a carburetor!
Question for those that have been running theirs for a while. I need to clean up the install (wiring etc). If I disconnect the battery will I lose what it's learned so far? Is there a way of backing it up and downloading so I don't?
Thanks... (I'll post pics later)
