fitech six pack reliable upgrade

[moparx5]

for anyone who may be interested
i recently went down the fitech 6 pack nightmare trail. for me it was a short trip before i realized what a headache that product was gonna be for set up, tuning and from reviews ( reliability ). i said to myself there has to be another efi management system out there that will run those ( carbs),,,, and there is. fortunately for me i bought my fitech used at a fair pice so some of the hit to re invent that system was not as painful.
   i took a chance and called holley tec line and asked if there terminator X system would run them. the answer was no but another of ther products wil!!!! So thats about as smart as i am with electronics, i have a local chassis shop i have known owner for years and spoke to him about my idea and he was willing to do the work and tunning.
 basically we replaced all the fitech accept the carbs with holley product. iac.tps ,,,, everything !!!
i drove the car today after he did some drivability tuning and it ran dam good !!! gave it a little shot off the line and grabbed 2 hard gears of rubber ( 4spd car OfCourse) im sure as the learn program does its thing it will only get better.
 so just posting this because for myself i wanted good drivability and reliability of my car. it is a true six pack car and not a hole was drilled in the car to do this mod. all original parts are in a box if a future owner wants to go back in time and enjoy that. my other 2 mopars have efi not fitech, and i was so frustrated with the tech support and obviously this particular fitech product.
  if u have it on your car or you threw it in a box and gave up and want to upgrade to holley i recommend it. for me it was about $3500 in total parts to upgrade,,,6 a box and msd billet dist is needed,, yes real money but it realy fixed that problem.
 mabe this will give someone hope the parts they really wanted on there car will actually work the way they should

as requested by cudahunter i started this in a new thread. attached is the parts list used to upgrade away from fitech electronics and have a laptop tuneable setup. also attached are pics of mods to manifold to allow balance and airflow with the manifold. don't be afraid the manifold didn't feel a thing. aftermarket manifold so i didnt feel any pain either.

Thanks for the information. 

I would love to install a FI Six Pack setup on my wife's R/T Challenger.

Holley was promising their own Six Pack injection setup a number of years ago but it never happened.

I've heard many horror stories regarding the FItech Six Pack system so I never considered it and kept the stock Six Pack carbs.

Any idea on cost both parts and labor in buying the FITech setup and then the Holley conversion parts?

I have a few Six Pack intakes already.

my guy treated me good on all the parts, i would expect to cost $3500 + depending on your distr. and msd box
i did find my fitech system used and threw away everything but the carbs.
i do believe you can buy only the carbs , no electronics
hope that helps
