EFI or CARB ??? LOOK

I agree partially. Having had both I liked the driveability of EFI more...but the power of the carb kicks @ss. Of course...the EFI motor was stock and after the carb conversion it had an intake and a cam. The driveability of the EFI was SOOOOOOOO much better. The problem with the carb is it's so fickle about weather. And here in Kansas the weather can totally change in less than 24 hours. I'm not one to spend a lot of time tuning so one day it might run like a scalded dog and then fall flat on it's face the next. It all depends on what you want. Carbs really aren't THAT bad and if you're car's already carbed then switching it to EFI will be a helluva task. Expensive too.

"I made the turn at 108,
And he was up on my back gate,
And I knew he had something bad,
Underneath that hood.
So I pushed it up to 110,
