What are you putting the 496 in? What type of heads, ovals or rectangle port? What type of budget? Have you thought about factory fuel injection? As stated earlier megasquirt in conjunction with factory fuel injection will work good with bigger injectors of course.
What generation of big block?

I plan on using it on my 454 pretty soon. it is not as bad as it seems. They even offer pre-built kits.

it was pretty easy to do. its downright easy. short of soldering and actually gathering all the parts, there is nothing to it.

btw, I have an intake setup I just took off, with 42lb injectors. let me know if you are interested in a great deal

as said above, a little big for a 496, but it will work, just not optimal. If I was doing a 496 I would use an Edelbrock Oval port head. They are inexpensive and can work well when ported.
