That Killshot should solve the questions about the truck's ability to handle a Colorado run, if I'm understanding what it does correctly.

Its throttle body fuel injection like what Ford and GM used int he 80's (and GM used into the mid 90's)

It will run upside down and at the top of mount Everest and everything like a new fuel injected rig.

I am still bummed, I was really wanting to see how it would have done in the mountains with a carb.

I said almost. I get that that won't work in a nuclear apocalypse type situation where a carb would as long as you could find some way to provide ignition.

Yeah, that stuff isn't close to being on my radar. Besides that I have five tractors that with carbs and one doesn't even need a battery to run.

So, I understood correctly then. A nice upgrade and still keep a sort of old school look to the engine.

It will hide under my air cleaner and nobody will even know it is there.

And on a unrelated note as I read the directions it has a fuel pressure senor built into it and cycles the pump on and off like a normal EFI vehicle rather just on/off like it is now. So I do like the sound of that.
