Hi,
I've been looking everywhere for information on what carb to buy for my Mustang engine, decided to come to the source and see what is current;y being used.
I have a 1989 5.0 attached to a T5 five speed currently being installed in a 1961 MGA. The engine is stock other than a 1967 298 distributor, an Edelbrock Performer intake, and a pair of block hugger headers.
The time has come to buy a carb for it and I was hoping to find out which one would be the very best to buy for this engine?
I've heard suggestions and opinions ranging from a Holley 600 with vacuum secondaries to an Edelbrock 500 with mechanical secondaries, from a Street Demon to a Summit carb and intake kit, and all the reasons and augments for and against each of those. I'm more confused than ever !
I would LOVE to hear from someone/anyone who has bought and installed a carb on their stock 5.0 and is satisfied with the drivablilty/perfromance and what model and manufacturer of that carb might be
Please !
TC
