Stick with the EFI. The T-56 works great.

I have two friends with LS1 datsuns (240 and 260) they are pretty badass and have made me want to do something totally stupidly awesome like dropping a H/C LS7 into a Porsche 914.

I'd choose EFI over a carb anyday, but a carbed LT1 would be harder to package under the low 280 hood than the EFI set up and the EFI would run way better.
