Reply to "Weber Carbs"

What heads are you using. Small port 3v type heads will give you crisper response. So will a small vacuum carb like a Holley 1850.

The Edelbrocks are mechanical secondaries. They aren't necessarily the best idea with the stock 4v heads.

Cam timing and muffler changes will change the growl and sound of the engine too.

The FI Mustangs with the same equipment, i.e., headers, Flowmaster mufflers, agressive cam sound identical to the Holley equipped ones.

The biggest advantage to the FI is tuning with the computer and better cold weather startup and running. Other then that I see little advantage.

Well...lack of fire risk is an advantage to the EFI over carbs. There is no fuel held in them like the carbs have.

What catches fire though is the elements on the air cleaners. The paper elements are the most susceptible since they just become fuel sponges from the reversion pulses.

So +1 to the EFI on that count.
