Convince yourself all you want but a carb pretty close to being dialed in is going to out run the same efi setup everyday. I will say the efi is much better for a street car which is why I run it. But if I had a track only car a carb would be sitting on top of it.

Starting to 60, key words. If you would have had the same mods with carb as you do to the suspension, and converter, the carb would have again been faster. I think efi can run as good, and definitely better for a street car, but I don't think efi can outperform a carb. Consistently, yes I think it can as in varying weather conditions but That's the only advantage in my opinion. You know what they say.....lol

What intake? I know when I had a plate system after 250 I was having distribution problems and not pickings up as I should have. Was informed by 2 nitrous vendors here that LS1 LS3 style intakes have that inherent issue. They both rec port jnjection. I had a Fast LSXR 102 and a 2 stage Nitrous outlet plate system. So kept it at 200 range for a while.

The emulsion effect is the claim by people paid more than me. The dense intake charge does wonderful things.
DI is awesome becage it’s sprayin the piston, so that may count for something, but longevity the DI engines are getting carbon built up and need cleaning. Where as ford has designed the DI and traditional injection working on a engine at different demands.

a little more compression with e85 is free power too. it kind of takes the street out of street car to me though. I've been asked a dozen times why I wont run e85 on the Camaro and my answer is because I want to take a road trip without plotting out gas stations that carry e85. i'll just run 100% methanol on top when in boost.
