I have a 1985 monte SS. It has a 327 with a holley 650 carburetor. I want to switch to fuel injection, what's the best complete kit to buy?
 
Best way to convert to EFI is to get a complete OEM EFI system out of a donor like TPI. Aftermarket EFI is not the same quality as OEM in more modern cars like you are more used too. A good Qjet setup correctly will drive just as well as EFI anyway.

The GM stuff has its quirks too. And it's only going to be as good as the software supporting it.

True, but OEM has many more hours and dollars of R&D put into it than aftermarket. OEM systems are also designed more specifically for certain engines while aftermarket EFI is generic one size fits all design. Its similar to OEM carbs vs aftermarket carbs.
 
I like Term X because the ecu can be inside the vehicle. Looks like they fixed some problems with the new Sniper 2. I would use it if I had to. Install is real important.
