David,

It is monitored with an Ox sensor and adjusted as needed. I am sure they are
not as good as the factory EFI. I know someone on the forum had problems
passing his states EPA check. He installed a Holly system(I think) and
passed fine.

I'm just thinking here, cause I don't want to work . . .

Why FI???  Metering/fuel control and distribution?

If that is even close to the truth, then why do to the trouble and  
expense of converting if the distribution part isn't addressed?

No, really.  why?
