You gotta run timing control, it's a waste not to. The flexibility is unbelievable, and pretty limitless.

I separated the injector, sensor, and ignition wires into separate harnesses, and it's easy when you do that to isolate and eliminate RFI/EMI. Can use sleeving/loom and other methods to block/control feedback, taking it a step further. With a little foresight and planning, there should be no reason to have RFI/EMI etc. I had to be careful, especially with drive-by-wire.

I used thread-serts/riv-nuts for grounds, the contact area is much greater than a sheet metal screws. Body to frame, engine to frame, panel to panel, I'm certain my grounds are more than efficient.

As for cams, my current cam is a solid roller 260/267 @ .050 on a 112, EFI lobes that have max lift, fast open ramps, easy close, and have about 10.75-12" at idle. No problem. My idle timing is 26, WOT is 34, with 8-10 degrees of 'vacuum' (MAP) advance. Feels like a daily driver.

I haven't used the Terminator software yet, but imagine it's probably close to the v6 stuff. Not sure if you can upgrade to HP/Dominator status on the Terminator X, not sure it's the same as the original Terminator EFI is. Should be easy to figure out though.
