Cool

Feeding a 350RWHP motor seems too high to achieve without upgrading injectors ,MAF and intake and throttle body, adjustable fuel pressure regulator if you have a big cam and maybe a custom chip. Add up the price of those, what is it about $800-$1400. Now add up the price of a Holley 750 and a Performer RPM carb intake. It's much cheaper to go with the carb and much easier to adjust your fuel ratio and idle with the carb. You know the drawbacks though, bad gas mileage, the car won't be worth as much. My son is trying to decide the same thing with his 89LX.
BTW we live in Lexington too, hello neighbor!
