Default Delay box?

I'm stuck on this one.

I know "a lot" about how to work on my newer cars, and not so much about older cars on some stuff. I know "a lot" about racing.

I know how a delay box works on a carburated car, but what about my ls1?

I've got a LPE 2-step, and I need to hook that to my transbrake, but I haven't looked into a delay box yet.

I'm sure they make such a thing, I just haven't seen where or by who.

I'll be spraying, so I don't think I want anything that'll cut fuel!

No difference between the set up with boxes between EFI and carbs.
The box is wired in line to the transbrake and delays the activation. Any delay box will work.

As said, it works the same. The transbrake doesn't care how the fuel is going into the engine.
The basic plain jane delay box I'm selling worked great for me, with or with out N2O.
The only reason I went with the $500 box was because of the multi-stage timers,
and electric shifter.
If I wasn't trying to index race, I would have stayed with my original box.

I hope you don't plan to spray during the delay. There's much better ways to do it.
