Totonka how do like your 2FE how is the power and economy. I am interested in this option.

Power? Really good.

Economy? No change.

A 2F-E in a 60 will be more involved electrically with the addition of a wiring harness. You can use a tbi from a GM or the top of a 3F-E. 2F-E with an H55 would be great.

Adding EFI will make it more drivable and more reliable (after bugs are worked out).

And if it were me, an OME setup would be tops. It is simple, and proven.
