My friend made into 5.0 mag...

[srv1]

Show me what FI intake would out perform a carb intake or what FI intake would out perform a carb'd intake with the stock E7' heads. What I didnt mention is he put BBK equal length shorties on it. The car has MORE torque and horsepower throughout the RPM range than he had with the fuel injection. His car has 3.55 gears in it as so doees mine. I used to pull away from him before he did the swap. now I can't pull on him anymore.

Like I said before, show me a FI intake that would out perform a carb intake with the mods he has. If you want to make more naturally aspirated horsepower, go carb. The stock 5.0 intakes are restrictive. He actually bolted the carb down, adjusted the pumps, pressure and basically thats it. It runs perfect!

Another example. My friend has a Mustang with a roller motor out of a 89. He went carb. He has stock headers, stock cam, stock everything. He is running a holley 550 with Victor Jr and his car is way more powerful than mine.

Got to admit, if you want it to be easy, like turn the key and go, FI is the way to go.
