SDS EM-2? (Clarification)

[Paul Ruschman]

	Uh.... Not to familiar with altering the OEM ecm and how COMPLEX and time consuming it might be to match my mildly warmed over Chev 355 that currently runs a Holley 650 DBL pmpr. The SDS system looks rather easy to set up for just about any application and appears to be rather simple to adjust for future modifications. 
	I also feel that my original intent was missed all together. 
	"I" do not want to hash out the "OEM vs. everything else" debate. That is another post all together. My original intent was to find out from those in the know about options with the SDS unit or an equivalent stand alone EFI system that I could have running in a couple of hours and almost perfectly tuned in a  weekend, make adjustments in "real time" as this seems like the best way to tune.
	This particular project is meant to be a simple bolt on, minor tune, and enjoy system. If someone would like to take the time and burn proms for me as well as do all this tuning, and not put a "HEX" on my engine, (sad attempt at humor, sorry) I would be more than glad to hand over the keys, as long as I get my car back, running well, in less than 2 weeks.

		Thanks,

Tell you what, list all the reasons you want to go this route that are
better than using an oem ecm, and I'll respond.   It's gonna cost you
roughly $800 to save burning proms, geez.  Prom burning ain't the
hassle it's made out to be.  It's all the testing to optimize things, that
takes the time.  Waiting hours from one WOT pass to the next, and
for similiar weather is a hassle.  Access to safe driving areas like
dragstrips or getting approval from an owner of a private lane to
use is what takes time.
