Let me elaborate, for those of you in Rio Linda:
(This might be all hearsay , because I haven't talked to PC lately..nor do I care to)
1977 Cadillac Seville, 350 EFI } E-shift okay
1977 Cadillac 425, 4 bbl} E-shift not okay
1987 Camaro , 305 EFI, 700 R4 trans with governor } E-shift okay.
2009-2018 A/FX factory ringers, various computer controlled EFI systems } EFI not okay.
Whew , boy...
Someone asked in another thread: "What do we get for our $360?"
Not much, apparently.

Let me muddy this up a little more.........

How about the CCC (Computer Command Control) Q-Jets of the early '80's?????

They are not EFI but they are an EFC (Electronic Fuel Carburetor) which is ECM controlled....

How about e-shift for them?????

Let NHRA chew on that...

PS:
They probably had lock-up convertors too
