hows it goin, i hav got $8500 2 spend on a 5L just woundering wat ppls opinion was on carby/EFI dont really no which way 2 swing any help would b dope, cheers

go for a test drive in both examples but good luck finding a descent injected 5l car for that much. or is your question asking how to spend that money on your current engine............... if your asking for help make it more specific so we can understand what you on about.

8500 on a carby 5L will get you big power efi will cost ~2 grand just to get a management, ~3 grand for a good ecu, etc disclamer : in no way did i say carby is better than efi, just cheaper to mod all in all, its up to whateva you want as they both have advantages/disadvantages

suggestion, sell your 5litre and buy a new complete 5.7litre holden stroker motor for about 7g... fit it up, get an exhaust and cold air, and youll be pushing near 250kw as simple as that. Or if u wanna get complicated build your own stroker, 8.5g is more than enough to cover it and build a nice healthy one, depending how much u can do yourself.

sorry ppls i meant finding a car 4 $8500 and if i go EFI i will get a more $$$ 2gether 1st, like i hav been lookin around perth 4 a bit and if i find a nice VN/VP SS i will get out a loan just wounderin from ppls experience carby or EFI. like buy a cheap carby V8 and spend all my moneys bombin it up or get the $$$ 4 a clean EFI 5L .cheers 4 ya help

you can buy vn/vp ss for $10g.

I know its not a 5L but you could have a tough LS1 for that kinda money

yeah sucks hay but it want change my mind about carby v8s love em

buy a turbo 6... or better yet a turbo 4, fuels gettin to damn pricey to be runin these v8s these days lol

bah! some 4's use mroe fuel then V8's anyway man

interested to see a 4 that gets 150-180km cruising from a $70 tank of petrol Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

nar dont swing 4's and 6's like the sound of a nice V8

Quote: bah! some 4's use mroe fuel then V8's anyway man The red Holden 6�s use more than the 5.0�s � my 5.0 used only a � tank to travel to a town whereas the red 6 used � tank doing the same trip. Modern 4�s are good � my WRX got 720km from a 60L highway driving and still had 5L fuel left. VN � pppfftt. Why not get something older like a minta VH SLE or an XT 289 (Jet_Girls sighs��XT's are very lush)

go carby. sounds beastier. and u dont need to spend $$$ on computers and sh!t lol

go gas aswell
