If I was motivated to build a comfy luxury cruiser like a 57 Caddie I'm sure I'd opt for FI. But I am not building a daily driver or something I even want to be refined and smooth.

There is something about dialing in your 4bbl or pair of 4bbls that I like.

There is something to be said about the sound of a NA motor breathing through those carbs.

All of it is part of what I want from a PT car.
Once in a blue moon I just gotta agree with you.
