My vote is for the Motor craft. Easy to tune simple to work on and cheap and easy to rebuild. Second only to EFI with a lot less learning curve. I tuned mine once at install and run it at sea level and the Colorado mountains without touching it and it ran great.

I ran a 2100 for years. Finally bit the bullet and got a sniper EFI. Best decision ever

- 84 CJ7 4 banger-owned since new in 1984 bought off truck at dealership - rebuilding 258, T176 with Sniper EFI D300 4:1 Lomax gears Twin Sticked 1 piece axels with locker
I have had my Jeep just under 38 years. First greatest upgrade was a Weber on my 4 cylinder. 2nd greatest improvement was a MSD 6AL. Now i really am waiting for the greatest next thing which will be a AMC 258 i6 / 4.2l with Sniper.

- 1979 CJ5 Renegade 258, t-18 pretty much stock except for a later model aluminum intake manifold and Gronk 2150.
The simple solution is the 2100/2150 with the 1.08 venturis. Can be done in an afternoon. We love ours...
Sniper can be done quickly but is not as cheap or as easy to troubleshoot. Some love them; some hate them.
Factory EFI would be a nice upgrade but can get complicated.
Depends on how much time, effort and money you are willing to invest. All would be an upgrade over the original toilet.

I ran my 2100 for about 18 years loved it. Just got tired of cold starts in the cold winter months and all the ethanol in the gas around here screwing with it. I ended up getting the sniper EFI and love it. I bought the master kit. However for my next one I'm going to piece together my own and save a few bucks

- 1984 CJ7, 420 HP "ZZ6 EFI" Crate engine, 700R4, D300, Dana30 front, Dana489 rear, 4.56 gears, 4" lift
EFI = MPGs. No cold start issues. Better on steep inclines. Running the Edelbrock Pro Flo 4. Can tune on my Android phone or tablet. If sticking with a carb, what Manic said - the 2100/2150. Simple and easy.
