I agree with all the stuff Tin and Gary say about the Hemi, new tech, very reliable...

I will also say, that for me at least, if you want the full benefit of new tech in a motor, you gotta throw that carb in the trash (or set it on a shelf with your extended spring shackles) and use the EFI, the initial payout may be bigger, and the learning curve is steep, But, the payoff for fine-tuning, power, driveability, startup, EVERYTHING is HUGE.

I cant see the $ into a Hemi swap then just throwing a carb on top...
