I want to thank all of you for your input. For my application, I am going to stick with the CCCS as it will be alot less money and hassle. I do believe there is a place for each type of induction, I feel that the carb is best for what I want right now. Again, thanks to all who responded.

No problem, and I hope it goes well for you. If you need any help, look to a few of the people on the carb board (listen to Ed, he knows his **** when it comes to CCCS). I drop in there occasionally as well, but you can drop me an email if you're desperate .

Just thought I'd chime in a second on the times of CCC Qjet times.

My 86Z28. Lg4 auto car would knock off 14.60's all day long, hot or cold.

I was running a summit 204/214 cam mildly ported 416 heads, the stock carb,distrbutor, and computer with a Wiped out shortblock. 3 pistons with cracked rings, one with melted ones. 700R with a 2400 stall converter and 3.42 gears with a posi
The car in that condition had better throttle responce then any lo3 car i'd ever driven, and what i though to be easier to drive daily than a tuned port car.

It did 18 city, 25 highway with a best of 29

I liked the system, and think I will get anotherone some day.

Alright, 3rd time writing this post, I keep getting wordy, and since no1 reads it all anyways....Short and simple:
1: Low end power is good
2: High end power is good
3: Neither side is really "right", this is more of an opion/question of what kind of motor are we building/budget
4: Power is good

Yea, the more the merrier. Hell if you are gonna go to all that work and have no problem with electronics, go sequential! Dont even mess around with this batch fire stuff.
