Both are going to need a fuel delivery system, tank etc. I still don't see the end pricing being that different. And with one you still have a carb,

That's the system I'd go for if I was.......this month. EFI is changing as fast as smart phones right now.

Don't forget the other accessories that add $500-$700 plus a few installation hours:
526-1 Holley EFI Fuel System Kit
526-2 Holley EFI Fuel System Kit
526-3 Holley EFI Fuel System Kit
526-4 Holley EFI Fuel System Kit
553-100 Universal Gauge - Black Bezel
553-101 Universal Gauge - Chrome Bezel
558-420 Terminator EFI Input/Output Kit
554-102 100 PSI Stainless Pressure Sensor

Just sayin


If I didn't already have stack injection (had several) I'd be toying with a system for the Mustang. Trust me - they cost WAY WAY more than this carb or a "normal" EFI. Try around 10 grand for an 8 stack set up.

I like the simplicity of the carb on a track car. And for me personally - I don't get enough "use" out of the few track days I do per year to add more expense to this activity. I know you're mostly just poking me - but for other reading these posts this is the way "I" think.

If I go to the track and have trouble with my Holley -- someone around there knows how to help me fix it - or has parts for it. That's important so as not to ruin a track weekend. Trying to find a particular sensor that's failed (unlikely but it does happen) in someones tool box is far less likely.

The Inglese SBF 8 stack "system" (it isn't complete) is about $4100... add to this the cost of injectors ($400) and Stacks ($430) and a new fuel tank OR their external pump set up ($1000) and it starts to add up pretty quickly. Now you need a dyno (even if it's self tuning I'm not running it without dyno time on an expensive race motor!)... you can add another $1000

I really had no clue they were that much moola! Hands down the best looking induction set up, not opinion, that's a fact Jack!
I haven't had time to read through the literature on this set up (don't know that it would make sense anyway) if you do end up buying one, what would it take to put on the 32?

Edit
Alright, I just read through the site and watched the video. I'm sold! Greg, be a sweetheart and order two of em and I'll pay you back....haha!

The '32 has a bad ass EFI set up!!


I was thinking that if the Silverback "carb" added HP/TQ I might upgrade the Holley on the Mustang to one. But they'd have to prove it added some real numbers for me to spend that kind of money!! PROOF as in real head to head dyno numbers!
