Well, my carb has been rebuilt somewhere along the line and works. As long as I can still get Decent Gas, I see no need to add to the complexity of the coach. Mileage is reported as improving to 8-10 on the injected engines, up from 8-10 for the carbureted ones. There simply isn't any upside for me.
When the State of GA in its infinite stupidity outlaws proper gasoline, I'll revisit the systems. Hopefully, by that time, somebody will have turned out a port ready manifold, sensors, and computer to run it. I wonder if you could derive crank angle and cam position from a distributor with a tone wheel in it... Or KISS using something similar to VW's CIS or CIS-E, which gets the bulk of benefit from port injection fairly cheaply. (I'm full of ideas for someone else to implement)

So it seems many are still sticking with Carb from the
Poll.

Is this due to cost ???

Or hard to install?

Of the people who do have EFI how many have done the
Rockwell instake?
