I am starting slow turning my 73 1.7 into a hot street/Auto-X vehicle. I want to know what most people with a 1.7 are using carbs vs. FI and why??

At present my car has the stock FI system, a new wiring harness courtesy of Jeff Bowlsby, some lower profile tires. With chassis and Suspension mods on the drawing board.

But I am wondering what guys are using while they auto-x and why they prefer it. I may change engines in the next couple of years, but I want to take my time and enjoy the car for a while now
