Carb or TBI?
 

The almighty question has come down to the many people here for the best answer...

I have the 85 Camaro... 350 bored .030.. 10.1:1 compression... Edelbrock 750 cfm MEch Secondaries, weiand accel manifold ingle plane.. Upgraded HEI igniton, headers, no cat, flowmaster muffler, 58cc 305 HO heads, Comp cams .507/.510 281 duration, Stock 700r4/stock convertor

The question comes down to... Do I keep the goin this way as a carb? or switch over the throttle body to make the car a decent daily driver??

And if carb is the better way... where would you get the carb tuned or a new set of metering rods??

carb

if you just want it as a daily driver, ditch the mech. secondary carb for a vac. secondary carb

I agree. A vacuum secondary carb is better on the street in most cases.

ditch the whole Edelbrock idea and get a demon or holley

Carb is certainly easier to install, with fewer headaches to deal with during maintenance. Plus no need for an ECM if you keep everything mechanical / vacuum, as opposed to electronic.

amen to that. demon carbs are sweet, cost a bit more. they are jsut made ssssoooo much better than the holley stuff that it is worth it.

Just make sure to check new Demons for metal shavings....

That said, they are awesome carbs once they are set up :D

def go carb my truck is tbi and its a real bit... to setup if i had to do it again id go carb

the hell with carb TPI all the way

TPI is a waste of money. parts are too expensive and don't deliver enough to justify paying it.

another vote for carb...holley or q-jet..defintaly vac secondary..tuning, somthing custom, parts, or rebuilds- steve's carb shop in lyndhurst..i have been using him for 3 years and had nothing but great results..

first with my stock q-jet, then the q-jet on my plow truck, then the holley i switched to for the new 350 in the car..just awesome
