[Spridgets] A-series EFI

[Chris King]

Electronics ahve come a long way since the 50's (the Chrysler you
mention below), and even the 70's (Cosworth Vega, for example). Bendix
also licensed a bunch of stuff from Bosch. The injectors in my Cosworth
Vega are from Bosch.

That may be why you don't hear much about Bendix Fuel Injection. 

Googling turns up a bunch of links. I like this one:
