Speaking of tuning.
I'll tell you I was impressed when Dave Lemon slapped a 58 mm
downdraft Weber on our p-port engine and got over 240 HP right out
of the box at 6800 to 7300 RPM. I never did get the EFI to work
right on the dyno.

Paul,
That is indeed impressive, although it was I sure knowledge that was
paid for with many hours of tuning on other engines. Often we go with
what is familiar for success. I was reading an industry magazine in
which some GM engineers claimed that they would spend as much time
mapping EFI as they used to for carburetors. Their concerns were mostly
drivability however. I am sure Francois can tell you that they didn't
move the injectors back to the "hot" side casually! There are
differences in performance.
