I dont know if Haltech and other systems were made for rotaries, but I do know that the Microtech was first made for a 20B.

Yep, the microtech was designed originally as a rotary only EMS, then they faded in some piston setups.
I think Siguel was using an LTX12...he'll probably go with their new LTX16 that should be available soon. Ah..only if I had a 20B hmmmm...

you say that you're putting the system on, but the big question is who is doing your tuning? That's really what it comes down too. If you're doing the tuning yourself with a wideband, I personally would go with the lt8. It is more user friendly in my opinion.

I would go with whatever your tuner is comfortable with.
You budget is blown btw, you have not factored in your tuning costs or a wideband.

Yup. I'll be doing it myself with a wideband.
With an LT-8 and a cheapie wideband, I might still sneak in under the $1500 mark.
Re the tuning, it's not so much a matter of money. I just wouldn't trust any of the monkeys around Richmond to tune a rotary. This here's moonshine drinkin', tobacco-spittin', V-8 country!
