engine prob
we recently swapped engines its not from a camaro but i got a question
ok we swapped engines same engine as before but used , were having a very bad fuel prob , its spiting and supporting and is using way to much fuel it has FI fuel injection(its a 351 windsor engine from a 1996 ford f-250) and thats were i think were having a prob no one can find out why its sending to much fuel to the system .
we brought it to a dealer ship to have them look at it and they said they want nothing to do with it sense we swapped the engine , its running strong but just to rich on fuel
if we switched from fuel injection to a carb setup would we be able to work with the fuel ration that way better cause were to the point we want to see the truck and we really dont want to but we dont wanna put another 800+ bucks when we could do a carb swap and turn for around 400 or soi i'm hoping

Re: engine prob
Try the simplest stupidest thing first; some smaller injectors.
I cannot, in my wildest dreams, envision a complete swap from FI to carb for $400.
Think about it...
Carb
Manifold
Fuel system
Distributor
Air Cleaner
Hoses, lines, misc
Time & trouble
Fluids
Compare to:
Injectors
Eh???
