Go to the ones they put on the 427R since it is known to behave. If I hadn't been driving through altitudes from under 4000' to over 12000 I would have done just that.

Please tell us what DFI system you have. In my car the Accel controller was behind the dash on the passenger side tucked in behind the glove box.

Also, the Accel harness was entirely self-contained and all inclusive and didn't depend on any modern harness bits at all.
I was stunned looking at the Holley carb pages last week, Tony. It is difficult to get a 750 or larger four barrel for less than about $850 — I couldn't believe my eyes!
