340 vs 360

what about going fuel injected with the 360? anyone done this?
i saw a kit from edelbrock... looked pretty nice. I think this would be better than trying to take a set up out of say a Dakota and retrofitting. gives you custom cal and tune-ability also supporting higher HP #'s stock a stock setup. I want to go fuel injection because its what i have grown up working on. just makes sense to me LOL Carbs scare that **** out of me :P

any other fuel injected small block guys?

The Edelbrock kit is not user adjustable. It uses a chip that Edelbrock sets up for you. You'll need the cam card to give Edelbrock. They say (Last read by me) turn around time is a couple of days. I read 3.

The beer barrel intake can be made to perform. But retro fittin it would not be what I would do.

Carbs are easy. You'll just need to take your time with a book and or a buddy.
