LQx with a carb look but EFI (hope this is in the right spot)
ok guys sorry but i keep thinking of stuff so and i have a question. Something that i was thinking about. Being that i have pretty much a blank lq4 motor in the garage and i want to put it in my chevelle. I was thinking about this lastnight about how i want the modern day technology in my chevelle but i would love for it to look like a classic carb setup. I know i read somewhere that a throttle body is out there that looks like a carb where i can use 8 injectors and still have the big air cleaner sittign on top of it. I am going to start listing my 454 and all the parts up for sale real soon to fund this conversion.this is the look i am looking for
can anyone tell me what carb that is? and can what would be better for me mega squirts or GM harness and pcm?

There are a couple of write up on the FAST EZ EFI on here. People seem to really like them in part because they are completely self tuning. A pricey solution though.
MSD is marketing a system called Atomic EFI. Haven't seen anyone post that is using that one but it looks pretty cool. They built the electronics right into the throttle body so should be super clean and super simple to hook up.
Holley has their avenger series.
Most of these systems are good in that they don't need a lap top to program them, use wideband O2 and claim to be self tuning.
