-- A comment by our best-friend-of tech - Steve Fergson
I have an older car that I installed a similar system on (MSD Atomic Fuel
Injection) and it worked perfect the first time I started the car.   Very
simple to install, no eng compartment clutter, low profile and best of all,
instant starting.  If there is a drawback it would be the noisy ele fuel
pump.  On a GMC this would be unnoticeable.  Miguel Mendez (MGM GMC) has
installed quite a few of these and has more than once expressed his
satisfaction with the.  A bit pricey but that's what you get for state of
the art TBI technology and ease of installation.

If you have questions or helpful comments you are invited to reply. If you
