Not getting rid of car bro....just some mods. Needs to be faster. I like the EFI set up. But with what I'm planning on doing tuning will be easier and cheaper. Plus I'm not to worried about the drivability. Lets just say its gonna be fun!!!!

Getting rid of my EFI set up as well. Got a pretty close setup
Performer 5.0 Manifold
24lb Injectors
73mm MAF for the 24lb Injectors
BBK Intake
Professional Products 65mm Throttle Body plus Spacer

Also have factory manifold, another polished throttle body, adjustable fuel pressure regualtors, some factory 19lb injectors, MAF, etc...
And now an extra electric fan

Think the carb is a good choice. The 5.0s seem to run better carbed

as much as i want the pms, i think you are fucking yourself going carb.

and i can say that, since i have had carbs, the FI is much easier to deal with, if you already have it on the car and it works.

I wouldn't consider removing it from my car, especially if i had your set up, your car sounded and ran awesome.

not necessarily, his car worked really well at track day, i liked it.

there is already what appears to be a good working fi system on it.

I doubt the drivability will still be there with carb.

anything that runs low 7's na and drives on the street is ok in my book.
