    I saw a drag test in Car Craft or Hot Rod a few years ago on a small block Nova, where they compared the FI to a Demon carb. The FI ran a second quicker when it was all tuned.

    It's expensive, though. Perhaps a modified Ford factory unit would provide more bang for the buck?

    Hmmm... Something to think about maybe???

    Do you think it would be reliable any moreso than a carb?

    Thanks for everything.

    I have heard.....

    in drag racing applications that FI is alot less weather sensitive than carb's are. I have alot of drag racing buddies that are going to FI.

    When set up properly, WAY more reliable than a carb.

    Keep in mind the computer, electrics, sensors, elctric fuel pump mods, etc.

    It can be an expensive undertaking unless you have a parts car.
