yeah i'd have to agree with Eroq EFI on both daily driver for obvious reasons... better fuel economy and for your off road rig you just never know when you'll hit a steep incline where you'd might sink a float on a carb you won't have to worry about that with EFI so yes EFI for both

i like to keep it simple. TBI fuel injection. no brains operation cheap to use and build. can sustain decent horsepower if used correctly. and you don't have any of the problems related to carbs being that of cold starts, steep inclines, or sharp turns. there are companys making aftermarket TBI assemblies that can handle the most built engines and make them run like a stocker. not to mention they get better mileage then even the most gas stingy carbs I.E q-jet.

i like EFI on my daily driver, i dont think that anyone would disagree with that but for a bogger i like a carb. maybe its just cause i know how to work on a carburated motor but i like it. i dont have any problems with inclines or anything with my truck, then again i have the floats set so damn high its insane. ive literally had my truck damn near flipped over on its side and it still ran just like when its on all 4's.

I have had this discusion with SO many people. EFI is the ONLY way to go. Reliability, adjustability, efficiency, you name it, EFI is the best. Some people say that carbs are easier to adjust, but with EFI it will automatically adjust itself, to a point that is, after that you have to step up the lbs/hr, or throw on a flash tuner, which yes it is more expensive but as the saying goes, ya get what ya pay for.

i would run a stand alone efi system(FAST) along with your stand alone ignition(msd,mallory,accel) if you have a laptop and some high flow-low impedance injectors along with each setup. more fuel, more air, more spark=more power. just by clicking a few keys(it is a little more in depth than that lol) alot more reliable for a dd and u can adjust for dd and then upload other program for bogging!!!! u can do it all!
