OS 1.60FX

[Gordon Anderson]

All,

   I have been running an OS 1.60FX in a Focus for close to a year, about 
20 gallons of fuel or so. After a little trouble getting things setup I 
have had very good performance. I'm using a Perry pump for fuel delivery 
and the use of this pump solved all of my initial problems. The only thing 
I have had to do is replace the main bearing one time.

  My question is about the fuel injected version of this engine. I'm 
building a Temptation and I'm wondering if the FI version of the engine is 
worth the extra cost. Here are a few questions for those in the know on 
this subject:

1.) What are the main advantages?
2.) Do you still need to add a pump for fuel delivery, if so is the Perry 
pump a good choice?
3.) Any power advantage?
4.) Any maintenance issues?

  Please let me know your thoughts on this subject.

Thanks!
