I need to make a decision soon. Assuming I can afford it, what system would you recommend for someone who doesn't want (nor is capable) to fiddle with fuel management systems? I have a 2.0 long block that I'll be getting to soon. I don't mind changing the internals. My goal is to have a reliable set up. I do not have a harness or injection system other then the one on my 1.7. I've looked at the websites for Megasquirt and KitCarlson but both seem to be for the serious DIY''er. I didn't mind carbs before but I just don't have the time to waste on them anymore.
HP or economy are not the issue, reliability is.
Thanks and.....HELP!

I have the SDS system. The install was straight forward except for the crank trigger (you don't "have" to have crankfire) set-up.

Cam choice is important with PEFI, although my SDS hates the crappy Scat C-25 I have now I got it running real good, least better than carbs. I'm going to hit Jake up for a cam when I do my new engine this winter.

As far as programing goes...that was the easy part with my SDS.
