My 6.1 retrofit thread

- I had two carbs on the shelf I can tune,
-I paid for my intake by selling the EFI, plus some.
- I knew nothing about EFI,
- I didnt want to upgrade the fuel system,
- My car is half a race car so economy isnt important.
- I think the factory EFI intake looks hideous in an old engine bay - sorry...but thats my opinion.
- The crate Gen 3 + a cam cost me $5500 USD - That provided better $ per HP than engineering and building a roller cam LA stroker to make the same HP. (Its now at
(475hp)

Im well aware that the EFI provudes a little more HP under the curve...but Im not chasing world records and I like the old school look.

With the Eddy dual quad and the OCP single dual plane...the days of woeful carb intakes for these motors is gone.

Theres 7 good reasons why I did it.
