Don't post much here, looked around on first few pages of tech forum and fuel/air forum and didn't see a thread on this (if there is one please fwd me to it)...I'm looking for opinions on running a traditional set up (carb) on a 408 v. FI. This will be a street/strip car, planning on roughly 500HP & 500lbs of torque, hoping to use 3.91's.
I'm looking for opinions on the overall performance differences in general and the ultimate pros & cons of if the extra cost of an FI system is worth it, b/c let's face it a FI system will cost more than a traditional carb set up.
I'm not much of a FI guy so any info on any manufacturers would be great, IE: does anyone make a complete kit to do this sort of upgrade, or is there a lot of customization involved/mixing & matching of different components etc?
Also clearance under the hood, I plan on this being a sleeper look and am hoping to run a completely flat hood either way, is that possible if going the FI route?
Thanks in advance.
