I WISH I had the fortitude, (And the cash at the time) to go MFI when I did my rebuild. (My MFI needed conversion/setting up for my new larger engine, when I was dealing with a broken 2.4., it was $$$). MFI has come along way recently, as there is much less of a 'black magic' to it, and sources and information have become much more readily available. 10 years ago, that wasn't the case.

If I were doing it again, and had the $$, I'd go MFI.

That might be more of a romantic answer though.
A Mod Solex refers to the Cams. A Mod Solex has a lobe center of 102 deg. instead of the factory 97deg(IIRC). This bumps low rpm torque and also gives you a better top end.

Other than the lack of MFI, how do you like it? Would you step up to S cams or????
