Ron,
Almost forgot!
Edelbrock now has the Torker
with EFI bungs already in:
Edelbrock 50665 - Edelbrock Victor EFI Intake Manifolds - Overview - SummitRacing.com
Don't pay any attention to the Victor label. It's actually a Torker II
As to scaring yourself, carb should be fine. EFI is for those of us who don't know how to tune one LOL My 557 powered 81 Zephyr wagon has a carb....
Seriously, EFI works for me for road racing. Seems to help prevent fuel starvation on turns/acceleration/braking.
As soon as the wagon gets a roll bar I'll try the carb on a road race track just for grins!

PS: That picture is 27K miles ago. It's in need of some serious cleanup now, but I don't seem to be able to stop driving it long enough to do that.
