Default Bringing the '67 into the 21st century

I haven't been on here in quite a while, but I just pulled the trigger on some new parts for my car. I just ordered an MSD Atomic EFI system and some necessary support parts and an aluminum radiator. It's just the first step though. Next will be a TKO 5 speed conversion kit to get rid of the tired old TH350 and a big brake kit.

I did alot of research on the MSD Atomic kit and comparable kits from FAST, Holley, etc, and I feel its the best way to go. The MSD boasts an option for a returnless system, which the others don't. But, thats not the selling point for me since I'm planning on doing an in-tank pump with a return line. (Not to mention having a returnless system is a bad idea for anyone planning on driving anywhere that regularly gets above 80 degrees!) My favorite thing about the system besides being self learning is that it is now compatible with power adders. I plan on eventually hooking a procharger up to it so it's definitely a good feature. Now, I have to figure out which TKO kit I want to get. The Hurst Drivelines and Keisler Engineering kits look almost identical and I've heard good things about both, so it will be whichever I can get for a better price.

To bad I'm deployed and I wont be able to start installing any of it until winter. I think it will make for an awesome winter project though!

Sounds awesome! I'd like to do something like that to the family's 55 Chevy bel air to make it more comfortable for long hauls. Should make you 67 a blast to drive
