Here's a look aback at a test we did a little while ago. So cool to watch the gas flow.

I watch this test run and Nick adjusted that carburetor almost as close as the EFI so it can be done old school for a lot less money just depends on what you want

Carb usually gives 15 to 35 more horsepower that what everyone thinks is it

All the Dyno test runs the carb wins by ten to fifteen horsepower every time the carb is the winner every time

@Cherokee93 really? Because I've ran them my whole life of 40 plus years and other than ones that have sat on a shelf I've not had one that didn't do what it's supposed to. I still daily drive carbed vehicles and the only thing I don't like is the ethanol fuel evaporates if left for days and you have yo let it pump up fuel.

I took my EFI off and went to carb. The engine sounds happier and the power is waaaaayy better. I can tune it on the spot. If you know how carbs work, you'll never want to use EFI on a race engine or classic car

False, if you know carbs and how to pick the right one, is out performs EFI. The Carb is an atomizer. You can't get better fuel air mixture than that.

until you get a mechanical secondary with annular boosters....way better than down leg and dog legged booster...they are just a better carb and faster and will keep up with EFI no problem.

All the Dyno runs, I've seen the carb wins. Buy 10 to 15 horsepower every time I've seen it Done 3 different times carb, one every time !! In my opinion thats the only place the carb wins is wide open every where else the Fuel injection burns cleaner, run smoother at colder, starts.Even hot starts fuel injections better

That’s not really fuel injection. That’s a throttle body style. It’s same as carburetor just controlled by a computer. Fuel injection has single port into each cylinder. This is a lie.
