It should work fine, just uses the CARB as a throttle body. People have been doing it for awhile, just take the jets out of the carb and plug the holes up. This system looks very nice though

that looks like a similar idea to what barry grant used to sell. it was a 4brl flanged TB with 4 injectors built into it. the BG version didn't use the bowls to hide the injectors though.
i would be interested in seeing how tunable the fuel maps are though. jsut commanding a single A/F and having the ECM figure it out sounds odd to me. a car requires a lot less fuel at idle than at WOT, will it be trying to command the same fuel ratio for both?

I dunno, it looks like TBI with questionable tuning capabilities.
