400 fuel injection

Just curious if anyone has tried a MassFlo efi system on their 400. Mainly curious as to the(if any) fuel mileage/power increases I could expect.

btw.....79 250 supercab 4x4 3.54 gears, C6, bone stock.

I can't speak from personal experience or even on that exact system, but I do know several guys that have gone the bolt-on fi route, and say the system generates 20-25% better fuel economy. They say they're relatively simple to install and maintain. As for power increases, I haven't heard of any actual increases, but a more consistent flow of fuel, so there's no bogging or feathering out.

Yep, I can read. I've seen more than a few over two years old. Not intending to flame. I felt it was a legitimate comment since I am getting ready to do a frame off restoration and looking at my options. Sorry if I offended you.
