Hi, Bill...I will admit that the EFI system has advantages and is more efficient. The one plus (and I consider it to be a BIG plus) that the carburetor has is the elimination of dual high pressure fuel pumps, injectors, wiring, high current draw to just run the system, etc. Guess ther is no free lunch.

Group,
With reguard to the Eliason vs Micro tech vs whatever, ALL systems require tuning! Finn chimed in about jetting a carb version,it can be a real pain. Believe me on this I have done it too many times!
The way I would compare this arguement is this. How many of you have had an alternator failure? More than one I'll bet. How many of those guys wanted to trash out that "new fangled" alternator and rush out to get a generator? The comparitive level of technology is about the same EFI to Eliason. Hang with the EFI,get it right and then live well.
