Car Audio Central - Ultimate Car Audio Forum and Community

i dont know if this is the right spot but i will say here and it can be moved if needed, alright if you would have say a 92 firebird that had a 305 and you blew the motor and put a 350 in there and put a carb ontop and have the fuel pump run constantly because it was a ghetto install would you call this stupid or is it just me? there is a guy over on car audio forum that did that and its just blowing my mind how stupid that was or am i the one who is retarded? anyway i think im gonna stay away from that forum for a long time its messing my brain up.

That guy is a frickin tard.

My advice if you want to hang at CAF is to not go into the WOT forum as it warps minds... The people in WOT do whatever they can to mess with you with no regaurd to who you are or what you know. Even if they are wrong and know it they are still right in their eyes...

well running an electric fuel pump with a carb is not unheard of or even a bad idea except that the one on his firebird is set for fuel injection and the fuel pressure will be way too high and unless hes running some sort of regulator with a return line hes gonna have all kinds of issues.

I run a 140 gallon per hour electric fuel pump from a fuel cell for my 850CFM 4bbl carb to supply enough fuel for the big block with the nitrous enabled, but it's set up right for a carb'ed motor.
That guy with the 355 and the carb has issues. Most of the people on CAF do. especially some of the dumbasses like Feandil and Nutmegs. I stopped even bothering to read that retarded forum.

thank you kiki, i am still sane well maybe not but im right on that one, im going to stay away from that forum for a long time now

kiki, whats ur MPG on ur car lol like 1?

i cant remeber what gears he has but i bet he gets between 8-11mpg

with the GV overdrive unit I haave a 3.20:1 final gear ratio in 3rd with OD, so I can get around 15MPG highway.. maybe a bit less.
If I run without the OD unit turned on, and just use the straight 4.11 gears in the Dana D60, it drops considerably. especially if I get into it. I get closer to the 5 to 8 mpg range.
There's always a price for power. That's running 93 octane on the street and 100 octane at the strip if I'm there all day.

with my ranchero i can get 20 with a 460 if i just barley tough the gas but once you hit the secondairys you can almost whatch the gas gauge go down but i dont care its still worth it for the fun.

a local friend of mine has a '71 el camino with a 454, mostly stock, still fast, and you actually can see the gas needle drop when ya put your foot to the floor. I know what ya mean.
