Hey
I was wonder if i should go with Carbureted or Fuel injected. The engine is going in a 50s rat rod truck. I thought that carbureted would be cool and less to worry about but i need to get a intake and a carb that fits the new magnum engine. On the other hand a have all the parts to run the fuel injection and don't have to buy anything. But im worried about the
computer and everything. So if you guys can help give me some direction.

Thanks

The intake to convert the magnum motors to carb was ~$650 the last time I looked. If you have everything to run fuel injection, go that route. What are you worried about with it?

Will Im most worried about the wiring and computer not working. Also the intake cost no more then 200, plus the carb would look really cool!!

Wow, the intakes have really come down in price.

As long as you took it out of a running truck, I see no issues. If it can out of a wrecked truck though, I wouldn't trust it. The carb would look better.
