a vl carby 8 vs injected 8? 1/4 mille 0-100 whoo 1st v8 post

thats the stupidist question i've heard in my life! what came first the chicken or the egg? are they both bog stock? did one get a little better treated at the production factory.. ask a better question and get a better response!

yeh stock carby vs injected ur a dumbass if u think thats a stupid question, get off ur high horse

i recken injected

injected.

any1 knwo the stock power figure for carby vs injected vl 8's? 122 fly wheel kw or someting for the carby?

injected which one? there are like 3 versions of the injected motor

VL standard V8 was 122 VL grp 3 and director 5L was about 180 VL grp 3 and director 5.6L was 231 VL Walkinshaw was 183

122Kw for the standard carby, 138Kw for HDT Group A and SV88 and 180Kw for injected HSV Group A. i have their quater times in a book somewhere i'll go have a look for it.

then ya have the stroker motor found in VTs

he was talkin about the power from VL v8's

you can't compare the two forms of induction, they are two different generations of engine!

i wouldnt say they are 2 different generations , the holden v8 has the same basic's from the older red's in the 60's to blues in the 80's to the injected in the VN- VT

haha "theres no such thing as stupid questions, just stupid people" ofcourse the injeced is going to win, both engines being stock, the carby has about 50kw less power???

i didnt realise how many different engines there r, thats cool. damn a vl director would be mad!

well to put it into an example a vn ss would rape a vl v8 in a race

and everyone bags out vn ss's

I think Holden would be pretty dissapointed if the efi wasnt an upward step in power & economy. The biggest benefit i found with the efi is they are alot more reliable & a hell of alot more responsive in stock form thats why i've done a few efi conversions into the earlier vh/vk's.
