Default Carbed or EFI

EFI Will cost way more money then a crab set-up.

You will almost NEED a tune on an EFI set-up with that many cubic inchesas where with a carb your tuning devise is your trusty screwdriver. Carbs make more power anyways

There's a LOT more to tuning a carb than just turning a screwdriver, but yeah, a carb wouldbe far cheaper and far easier to tune
