Carb or Fuel injection

Fordracing2 · 08-10-2003

I love the carburetor and i believe that is an awesome system but I would like the opinion of the masses. Should I go carb or fuel injection for my next car.

I'm leaning toward a carb because they are easier to work on and they don't have as much electronics on them to break down.

What do you think? carb or EFI?

Aloha.... Hmmmmmmm Good question I guess both sides have pros and cons. Tow truck or no tow truck that is the question. Most times you can make it home or to somewhere you can fix your car with a carb. While if the wrong or righ sensor on a EFI goes out you'd be towed home or some place to get your car fixed. But then who am I to speak, I only have one carburated car, my 85 GT stang. My truck and the wifes Toy ( dad gave it to us when he quit driving) are injected. There all good and besides I live on a island how far can I drive. Have fun deciding... Aloha

WOT go with carb. Anything eles and the EFI will be waaaay beter. Carb is lighter than EFI. Carb and be a justed with metering jets while the efi you need a new chip.

Both have pros and cons. What you want to do with the car will determin what type of setup to go with.

most important question....what is your goal with the car? racing? a driver? show? or like me, all of the above?
