from fuel inj. to carb engine swap

I get that response a lot. I know carbs can be a pain in the arse but keep filters clean and good fuel and they work just fine. And but just my opinion nothing looks better the a big ol carb or two. It's a hotrod thing I guess.
My mustang isnt being built for daily driving or racing...Its being built cool, different and fun. Both on the road and in the shop.

I'm a big fan of carbs and with technology out today they are so easy to use, make great power and are very reliable. My brother wanted a carb so I did his swap and ordered a Pro-systems 4150 with annular boosters. The car runs and drives great, gets awesome gass mileage and the throttle reponse is unreal. For anyone interested I am a site vendor here and will do complete EFI to carb swaps including removal of the PCM and harness.
I know people will disagree with me and call me a (non-tuner) and thats fine. I build hotrods, muscle cars and drag cars. No need for it in a lot of applications.

I've owned and built enough cars to have my own opinion on the subject. i had a string of cutlasses before i got into mustangs. all carbed. I do my own work and could do all of my own work if I had enough hours in the day.
My thing is putting carb on an efi car. that bugs me and seems like an easy cop out to fixing and modding your car the right way. If you wanted a carbed stang, buy an 86 and older.

Sorry it bugs you but it's far from a cop out. Seems to me that you gotta get your ego in check because you seem like a real tool acting like you are saving the world from a bunch of carburated muscle cars. We have had this conversation before. Nobody cares if you could tune a space shuttle. We like what we like and that's all there is to it.
listen, I was only offering my opinion, and I kept it level so i don't understand the hostility. you like what you like, and I like what i like. Thats not gonna change.
The personal attack was unnecessary. If there is something personal that needs to be resolved you can pm me your number and we can talk about it. You and i are adults, so responding like that shouldn't be necessary. We should be able to have a discussion and offer both of our opinions without getting up in arms. Thats what this site and the internet in general is for. I'm not trying to save the world from carburetors, I'm just not a fan of when anybody puts a carb in an efi car to no real advantage.

There didn't have to be any tone. Just take what you typed at face value and it's a jab at anyone and everyone that prefers a carb over EFI. I like carb better because it's what I know. They are simple and effective. My current 91 GT will stay EFI because it's for my wife to drive, the next one won't be so lucky.
nope, not a jab at anyone and everyone, which is why i put quotations on cool. I was directly addressing an earlier statement with my opinion of what he was doing and his reasoning for doing it.
time to move on. I offered my opinion and people fly off the handle. Its the internet, its one person's opinion in direct relation to another person's opinion. No facts are being stated, no laws are being created, its not that serious...
please, let the OP have his thread back
