I've done a couple LS engines with carbs and have had great results. It's super simple and the MSD controller is easier to use than a phone. As far as the fuel changes, hard starting, etc. etc.- I don't know about all of that. In fact, my results say otherwise. My 3200 lb. Nova ran mid 11s all day, any day with a T56 and 3.73s with a used LS1, cam, a 750HP, and hand ported 853s. No big deal, plus it looked awesome and different. I think I'm pretty good with a carb, so it's my preference. Go with what you know, but at the end of the day you can't convince me the EFI looks better than a Victor and a carb. BTW, in most cases LS engines make substantially more peak power than the plastic EFI setups.
