I'm doing a 2.8 conversion and am more interested in driveability and economy than maximum performance. Is the stock carb setup a good one? Would a four-barrel be a better choice?

The four barrel will give better mileage too (as long as you don't have your foot in it Jose
Hi Bill,
The FI requires a high pressure fuel pump and a fuel regulator. Fuel that is released by the regulator but not used by the injectors is returned to the fuel system via the swirl pot. (this is what your car does presently). The swirl pot collects the unused fuel and makes it available to the high pressure line.
