Reply to "Switching from carbs to fuel injection"

I had the Holley throttle body system installed when restoring and modifying my car several years ago.  The good points were that the car would start with a simple turn of the key for the first time in 20 years and the gas mileage was significantly improved.  However, once the car got warm (not hot or overheating) it would vapor lock or at least that's what it felt like, and would leave me in some very dangerous situations.  I would sit there for 15-20 minutes while the system cooled and then could restart and drive away.  But it was terrifying while stuck in dangerous intersections etc.  I had two different mechanics and two shops, both of whom have done a lot of work for me over many years, try and diagnose the issue, install heat shields, wrap fuel lines etc. but it continued to happen.  Holley was no help as they haven't answered their phones since the pandemic began, so there was no technical support.  I wanted to drive the car, so we removed the unit and installed an Edelbrock carb, and I've had no problems whatsoever in the three years since.  Only negative is the gas mileage is about half of what it was.  I have the Holley system sitting in a little box in my garage to someday be revisited, but after 25 years of ownership where I couldn't drive the darned car for most of it, I'm too busy making up for lost time, driving it every single weekend.  I'm not gettin' any younger.  An additional note, when I was visiting P.I.M. one day, I spoke with Jerry, and he told me he has removed fuel injection systems from so many Panteras, he can't even count them anymore, although there are many on this forum who report theirs working great.  This was simply my experience.
