Sniper EFI or stick with carb?

Carry a spare carb... lol!!
I’m not against fuel injection. If that’s the impression I made, that’s not the point I was really trying to get at. In fact I’m really excited about it.
Yes, I have some concerns with reliability. As more adopt the Sniper, it’ll show its reliability or lack thereof, and I’ll be able to make a more informed decision.
I’m also not in a position of spending another 4k on top of the other things that need to be done to finish the engines, get them dyno’d, then back in boat I’d really like to be boating this summer vs staring at a bunch of parts.

No experience with the Holley ignitions, but after speaking with the reseller, it seemed to me that the small cap EFI distributor would be fine for what I was doing. He was in agreement.

Since that dist is Hall Effect, wouldn’t you be able to use a Tbolt IV/V distributor if you have one ?
Can the Sniper ECU accept a magnetic pick up distr ? If so, delco/merc est/voyager could be used, if you have one.
