You can take all the "shootouts" and put them in one bucket and you won't have beans.

Gary is trying to tell me I need to go with the dual FCR's. I have a MK45 right now. $1K is a lot to get a little. Do you think it wise to wait for the EFI to get the bugs worked out?
Anyone else have any thoughts on what the best current setup is for my TVI730 on 110 VP?

Cardiac, Why can't you run your current 45carb? I plan of having a similar setup as you, big bore/race head and plan on using the 46hv that I have right now. Just got to change the tuning of the carb to make it work. Besides the price of the dual FCR's, its double the work!

I think EFI is where its at. An ideal system will have effortless throttle pull, be able to automatically adjust for environmental changes (temp, humidity, altitude, etc.). NO carb can do that automatically, some are better at compensating but none will give you the ideal ratio that a EFI setup can. If the price comes down, and the parts prove their ability to withstand the punishment of atv use, then the choice will be easy.
