Re: Tired of TBI issues, what size carb???
It really is a misnomer that a big block tbi gets better economy than a carb. I've owned 454 quadrajets and vortecs, 460 carb's and multipoint, new hemi and a 8.0 V10, and Ford 6.8 V10's. In one ton trucks the fuel economy was within spitting distance amongst them all. Weight and gearing make the biggest difference, but in 6-8000lb road pigs, gas mileage sucked.
Carbs are cheap; for example a brand new Sean Murpy qj is $3-400. Its cheap, reliable and will a last a long time.
