Hillborn fuel injection

I'm thinking about installing a Hilborn FI system on my 351 W. Apparently, they recently came out with one designed specifically for the Windsor engine. Does anyone have any experience with this system or know anything about it ??
Thanks

I deleted my post after visiting the Hilborn site. It looks great. GO FOR IT!!

It was developed in cooperation with House of Cobras for their stroker 351w's. It has a very simple to tune (comparitively) FI computer, and makes good torque/ hp compared to a single 4bbl. Did I mention that it looks nice. Their prototype unit with magnesium castings was out at willow springs a few months ago on a dark blue SPF, no other cobras were keeping up with it. Costs a couple of bucks I imagine.

I was actually at HOC yesterday and it is a beautiful setup. Everyone in the shop said it was scary how much power it had on the track. That day at Willow they were running it on the small trach. Exiting the last turn at about 20 mph all the way up to about 110. All the other Cobras were barely breaking 100 on the short straight and to get to 110 is amazing. Motorcycle acceleration...HOC knows their stuff...Pricey though, and if the motor isn't built for it, Dean will have to change the crank, compression and a few other things...Looking at prob 5k at least, installed.

NEVER LIFT

Oh yea, and they said they could get it to idle at approx 400rpm...amazing...
