Advantages of going carbed What would I benefit from going to a carb setup. I currently have a LS1 Intake and I'm putting down 350rwhp, I'd like to put a FAST 90/90 on the car but $1300 is alot of money, would a carb setup make as much as a FAST???
How would I tune the car after having a carb??

I think you will loose hp from going with a carb setup. not real sure but i know people gain horsepower when going from carb to fuel injection. maybe someone else will know more

in this case.. you'll gain nothing. you also wont save any money.
now if you have a large forced induction setup, the carb INTAKE flows more equal from port to port... but putting a choke point like a carb venturi on top isnt doing your motor any favors.
