keep it fuel injection, you can make alot more power and be streetable at the same time plus have much better mpg.... just my .02

carbs are for salads and lawnmowers

I have a 2000 6.0 that I am thinking about doing the same thing with, running a carb setup.I have done alot of checking and I have found that there is not much difference in the horse power. In some cases the carb out performed the injected engine.I have a magazine that I bought that compared the two and they found really little difference.The carb setup allowes you to do away with all the sensors and other stuff that will make a roadside repair almost impossible. Some like the setup and some don't,as for me give me simple anytime.

The LQ4 is a low compression engine. 7cc dished piston, LQ9 is a high compression flat top piston engine.

LQ4= 9.4 CR
LQ9= 10.x
