OK,,
-I have dual webbers, and the car runs great. I havent had to tune it at all, once it was set up it has been fine for around 7 k miles. -I agree that FI is better because it's more precise, its smoother, and the car will run better and more evenly up the RPM's... But, Answer this, -What about vapor lock, vac leaks, electrical failures-from PO wiring f-ups, 30+ year old electrical issues, and safety issue of a very old fuel system running at 34psi? I would say that if your FI is working right, or if you can put the big$$ into fixing it than it's better. But, if not, carbs are less problematic, easier to fix, and still run pretty good....IE-they are a comprimise, but when set up correctly, they dont comprimise much. |
