MSD TBI on a 65
Today for the very first time I fired up the 383 in my 65 Fury with the new MSD Atomic TBI system mounted. Fired up right off the get-go with 45 p.s.i. fuel pressure and went right to the target r.p.m. of 650. These things are absolutely amazing - great smooth idle, no choking fumes,no choke and no throttle return springs. Installation takes time to do it clean and error free but the results are worth every penny, or should I say buck. Acceleration is like day to night and my mileage actually increased 4 m.p.g. I like a good challenge but there was more work to keeping it clean looking under the hood than there was to the actual installation. You can see what's going on at any time using the handheld dashboard and make any minor adjustments on the fly. I left it in learning mode, and learn it did. After about five miles of stop and go and a bit of open road the unit got it all together and left me with nothing to tweak. I know it's better at mixture balancing because my vacuum went up 4 inches. Like the FBI, it knows everything from timing, engine temp and CO2 levels.
Scarry $hit when you think about it. I give this system a 5 out of 5 except for the cost but then what's really cheap these days that's any good?
