Beautiful car, and really bitchin' interior! What are your seats out of? Lexus fronts? Rears out of ? (because I'm looking for ideas for rears in my Nomad build and i like yours)

Sharp looking 55. Nice road clearance for less than good roads and driveway entrances.

You must have made changes since the Holley to fuel injection in the photo. Or is that not a carburetor?

Not much help. Interior was done when I bought it

Tell us how you like the injection vs the carb. What do you like or not like about carb/injection performance?

Any issues or special requirements for install?

Install was straight forward with no issues. I love the fuel injection vs carburetor. Engine starts by just turning the key. No more fuel smell and car runs nice and smooth. I don't feel any added power but I do have all the power I need. I wouldn't go back to a carburetor.
