      Cool, I was just checking out Barry Grants new Blow trough carbs. I think that would be the way to go.

      I have a twin turbo big block vette with a 750 holley that I modified for blow through. I would love to have efi but dont have the funds right now so I took the cheap route. There are several companys that will build your old carb or sell you a new one ready to run. Mine works fine and I spent under a hundred bucks and a few hours time doing it.

      I am probably going to go TT and AED offers a cool blow-thru carb that is like ~400 on eBay. Granted, its not going to be good as a $900+ from CSU, but unless you are hunting for every last horsepower (from what I hear anyway) a modified carb should be just fine.

      As TravisB said, I have a 406 TT through a carb. I got my carb and stuff through CarbShop/Vbranic Bros.

      For me, I couldn't justify the means of swapping to EFI. My main comment or suggestion for those considering it is to really research the bonnets available. The design of the hat makes as big a difference as the carb.
