I have had a lot of great suggestions and recomendations from you all before, now I have a new dillemma. I have a sbc set up with all edelbrock rpm parts. I was always planning on getting a manual choke 650-700 carb, but now I'm thinking of an aftermarket TPI or something a little more reliable. I can tune a carb, but I don't want to be constantly messing with it. Plus, gas is getting spendy, and I plan on riding as often as I can. I heard TPI's are better on mileage, but do they reduce the throttle response and/or HP? Please help. Anything would be appreciated... Also, I was recently working on the block when I took the water pump off and accidentally dropped one of the lock washers in the water gallery!!! Am I screwed!?!
