TPI vs Carb

Right now I have the stock carb and want to jump to tpi. How hard would this be?? Would it be worth the trouble in the end?

If your car is stock carbed, GO CARBED. to much of a head ach of a swap, plus it will put a big dent in you wallet.

John Mcmillan posted a great link about this a few days back, Do a search.

For a daily driver EFI is the way to go. Do it now, or do it later.

Carbs are cheaper to work with in my opinion. However for a daily driver the standard every day performance and consistency you get out of a TPI setup is hard to beat.
