Default After market efi

Are there any efi kits that are good and affordable I've seen kits as high as 3600$

My motor is a 70 4 bolt main and built pretty nice with barely any miles so if i can use it instead of an ls swap that would save me some work

is there an affordable way to add efi ? Old stock set ups ?

Any ideas will be greatly appreciated
Thanks
Will a kit like this be as good a turn key option as an ls engine ?

Fast and MSD would be the two "budget options" worth looking at IMO.

Thanks just found the fast kit for a little over 2 grand thnx

Do you think it will compare to having an ls1 (350 70 block 360ish horsepower) with the fast set up ?
Just trying to figure out the direction I'm going to go

You might look around for a pull out LS engine with harness. You can make more horsepower with the LS engine, but at least you make around 400. The 1970 Gen 1 blocks were prone to oil leaks, so that will be resolved as well. You will have to upgrade the fuel system, which includes the tank.

Are you looking for a throttle body kit or multiport?

I'm not really sure just learning right now what do you suggest ?

An ls motor is what ill probably do but I'm just trying to cover all the bases
My engine is strong never leaked oil or anything just has so few miles i figure ill look into all the options currently pricing out used lq9s ls2s ls1s even 5.3s
Thanks alot for the suggestions I appreciate it
