Another "Is Fuel Injection a Worthwhile Upgrade?" Question

Fair enough. 1050 Dominator on a P head motor will make more HP than a 3310VS on an X head motor. If peak HP is what the sub after, build a dyno/track motor. If a more streetable car is what he's after, look into EFI. Ill call this the choice of a free market. Do your homework, look toward the future of your builds and see what can be pulled forward.

I’m tryin to figure out if you are suggesting that EFI is a guarantee of better low speed drivability because it’s not. Not even close.

Don’t ever even think I don’t do my homework. That’s awful arrogant of you to think it.

The modern carb is a highly sophisticated, easily tuned device that will do everything EFI will do and costs significantly less than EFI.

It’s incredible that people are willing to spend a huge amount on EFI and then are only willing to only spend 600 buck for a carb and ***** it doesn’t work.

And, that same dude will spend literally dozens if not hundreds of hours screwing around with EFI but won’t spend any time other than on a forum to learn carburation.

If you spend half the money and time on a carb that you do on EFI you’d have a different experience. And by YOU I don’t mean you in particular, I mean YOU in the sense of the general meaning of the word.
