Looking at EFI instead of carburetion on my new Torqstorm equipped 401 build. Leaning towards the Holley Super Sniper self-learing system.

Any experience or suggestions with aftermarket EFI systems on AMC engine?

Thanks,

I went with the FiTech Go EFI 600 on my 390 and have ruffly 1000 miles on engine and 8 passes down the track with no issues. I have two co-workers that went with the Holley sniper and one spent an extra 500 in parts ant the other around 800, I had given them my opinion on the difference between the two but decided because of some subjective reviews on the FiTech system to go with the Holley.The display is color on the Holley but i have found out doesn't give you all the read outs of what your fuel system is doing unless you wanna do some math or add in a inline pressure gauge, I would check out and compare the two for yourself and look at the quality FiTech puts into theirs vs Holley for same price point i.e line connections,fuel pump mount etc. FYI for the return line to the tank Holley has you drill into your tank, FiTech recommends MOROSO fill line return kit which i installed and works well.

When using boost you need a boost referenced MAP sensor. There are several boost limit versions. Holley should be able to tell you (and likely sell you) what you need.
