Is it worth swapping to Carb style intake?

Hey guys, Im running a 408 with 90/90 fast. What would be the better upgrade? 102 fast or carb style?

Thanks in advance

We have a carb forum that you could post in too.

What are you looking to gain...performance, ET, tuning?? Is this a track only car??

Since you said STYLE I am guessing you're looking to keep the EFI?

Only advantage is with a 4150/4500 style throttle body. If you have to use an elbow you will lose power .
Cam profile is different for a carb style as well so if you don't want to change cams, stay with the fast.

Well its a Street car.. Yes ill be sticking with the EFI. Im looking for better performance for sure.. Sounds like the Fast 102 is going to be the smartest thing to do..
