Thanks Bill,
That explanation helps.  I also tend to fear the complexity of EFI since there's so much to learn to get an entirely successfully implementation.  I don't mind learning and I've always been intending extensive ground-testing and debugging before taking it airborne.  But despite my best efforts it seems that there's still a good chance I would encounter discoveries new to me only after getting airborne.    I would still like to see a comparative evaluation of an Ellison on these motors, if Paul doesn't do it there's a good chance I'd give the Ellison a try first and do so on a dyno.  That won't be in the next few months however.

Group,
 I want to remind everyone about how much a priority the large volume inlets are to us. I believe Ed Anderson was mentioning in one of his posts how difficult it can be to get a MAP signal in the airbox of one of our PP engines. This is a perfect indication of why the smaller throttle bodies used on some of the slow turning engines will kill our HP.
