1969 Dodge Coronet 440 based on the car craft build from years ago with one exception. An alternate to the carburetor. This car will occasionally see the track, but primarily will be used for cruising and spirited street driving. I have looked into several options available, and have narrowed it down . The first option would be a throttle body system from FAST fuelairspark.com part # 30227-KIT or the Edelbrock proflo 2 system Edelbrock.com # 35090 I am looking for a bolt on and little hassle system, so what are your thoughts? Pros vs cons etc. What do you think? thanks eight

Look at the Fastman EFI web site. I believe he has a throttle body set-up that he says is self-tuning.
Master, again and still

Thanks for the heads up! Does anyone on the board here run one of these systems? Is there a pro con between throttle body and EFI? Or is it just preference?

This is awesome, learning a lot here. What about Edelbrocks pro flo system? Has anyone run this? I have heard some people don't like these systems. Aren't they a plug and play also once they are dialed in? thanks again! Lots of resources to consider here!
