I agree, a properly tuned computerized setup specific to your equiptment would be faster. It would just cost much more.
About reliability...... My EFI died 3 times in a year from MAF, ground and O2 sensor problems respectively totalling over $1000 in repairs. Once I got the carb conversion woes out of the way and had it running, the worst that happened to me is that it died once in 2 years. I went up front and sprayed some carb cleaner at it and then started her back up and drove off. Word. I think the carb is much more accessible and costs much less to repair and tweak. When something dies on an EFI, all you can do is replace components and these usually are $50-$300 per component
