Carb is better to get power from for the price.


I like EFI though..

Carb is nice to be very hands on, tuning the carb, etc....but fuel injection is where it's at. Definately

don't get me wrong.

I have an EFI and will never go back to carb.. But isen't carb a better bang for the buck.. tuning is easy.. to build a carb motor is cheaper.. and you don't have to do the whole computer tuning / programming or chip



Fuel injection is way more realiable and you can make a ton of power from it..
but not as cheap as a carb.



what gears are you running 4cyl5.0?
