Pitching the EFI!

Hmmm... sounds like you know absolutely jack about EFI. I've seen a SD car run fine after a 24lb injector swap (with idle surge.)
looks like you just proved my point. thanks. next
here's this 62 year old guy out in the garage tuning a 3.3L inline 6 1 barrel!!! He managed to get the damn thing to run like nobody's business though. Pump it once, turn the key and it starts and run's like EFI. guess you proved my point there too. wow. next-
How long does your carb stay between 2000-3500rpms? its driven all day every day. its my every day car.
Hmmm... running my stock car with 2.73's versus a modded carb car? if you consider gears, carb, intake and headers modded then you shouldnt be giving advice on performance.
It sounds to me like you have as much interest in the aspects of EFI as I do about carbs. not only do i have interest but knowlege also. hey, i have already aggreed with you on the injection thing but when you look at the money to hp ratio the carb will win. so if someone turns to me and says " i have no money and this damn injection isnt cutting it, what can i do?" i say go carb. unfortunately most people dont have someone like your father or me around to tune the carb right but if you do, then take advantage of it. otherwise buy a laptop and tuning software and tune that injection. hell, i can do great things with an epoc system and i actually know what all that stuff is. but who has the money for that?
