For those who have converted to 11 pole because of installing EFI the reason was simple, they had either a 6 or 8 pole stator which just ain't gonna cut it on EFI. Also they had to convert to a DC type CDI which is no big deal just extra wiring.
But you're already set up with more amps just because you have a 12 pole stator. IMO I would install the EFI, change every bulb ( except head lights of course) to LED's to squeeze every extra watt out of the system to go to your new EFI and see how she goes? I'm thinking she'll purr right along and as soon as you hook it all up and get her running you can test across the battery terminals at idle and at a higher RPM to see what charging voltage you have.
You'll know at that point how it will do and if it's OK which I believe it will be then money and work saved, if not the money and work is the same now or later. Just my opinion.
