Re: Increased MPG for carbs?

Thanks for all these ideas guys! It's interesting to read all the different styles to get to the end result. However, I'm thinking about saving up for either an EFI engine swap, or buying a custom built 383 Stoker from Unlimited Performance. They're priced at $8,200, and are built to exactly what I ask them to build it for. And it comes with 380 hp and 440+ ft-lbs. of torque. I might even see if they can take that and EFI it as well.

One day, I'll also find something to cram one of their 572s in. $19,200 built from scratch and has 790 hp. Pretty sure that'll be my midlife crisis, haha.
