Toby,
    The Edelbrock-Weber Pro-Flo is a capable system.  It comes with a small
control module that interfaces with the ECM to monitor and set many
parameters.  Building a simple interface cable you can plug it into your laptop
and do the same.  Makes it a lot easier to see what is going on than using
their two line display.  You can also record what is happening for later
analysis.  PC software is out there to do all of this.
