Re: Tired of TBI issues, what size carb???

bigblocksrule, if an engine is having fuel wash issues(like you are describing), the carb is way out of tune, way too rich. you can get the same fuel wash with a fuel injected engine. i had a friend do a 5.3 swap into a g-body, cam, heads, headers, different injectors, etc. his mail order tune was rich and he washed the rings out.....with mpfi. it's all about the tune, just as insidious talked about.
