Contemplating Fit conversion for DB1 in CMod

I have been toying with the idea of doing a Fit conversion to my DB1 for some time now.

It seems like the Fit has more low-end torque, and is apparent when doing side-by-side drag launches at Pro Solo events. When doing hill climbs, I can also run the Pro restrictor (hills always require more power!)

There are a number of concerns that I have about the Fit motor however:

Lower redline - I will commonly run a bit over 7k to avoid a shift when possible. The Fit cuts off at a lower speed - I believe 6900 rpm. Could someone please confirm this?

I prefer to run 100LL in my car since it plays nice with the foam in the fuel cell and keeps over the winter - I am not a big fan of mogas. What are people running in their Fit motors and how do they preserve their cell foam?

A DB1 is a tight fit - where would I end up mounting the ECU? I do not have much room between my back and the fuel cell bulkhead.

I have seen a number of complaints about repeated sensor failures and quality issues - how reliable is this package? I really do enjoy the simplicity of the carburated engine.

If anyone has additional points to consider, I am all ears.
