EFI vs. Carbs: Which Is Better for Your Classic Car?
The Short Answer: Both work. A carburetor is a device that’s simple, affordable, and easy to work on. EFI delivers better fuel economy, more consistent cold starts, and automatic fuel corrections that a carburetor can’t match. The right choice depends on your build, how you drive it, and what matters most to you. This is…

Drive By Wire vs. Drive By Cable: What’s the Difference?
The Short Answer: Drive by cable uses a physical throttle cable to connect the gas pedal to the throttle body. Drive by wire replaces that cable with an electronic signal, using a sensor at the pedal and a motor on the throttle body controlled by the ECU. Both work with EFI, but which one fits…

Engine Running Rich vs Lean: Common Causes & Fixes
The Short Answer: An engine runs rich when the fuel mixture holds too much fuel for the air entering the combustion chamber. It runs lean when there is too little fuel for that air. For gasoline, the balanced fuel ratio is about 14.7:1, so a rich condition falls below that number and a lean condition…

Inline vs In-Tank Fuel Pumps: Which Is Right for Your Ride
The carburetor came off, the EFI throttle body went on, and the old pump suddenly can’t keep up. That stock mechanical fuel pump fed your carb at roughly 6 to 8 psi, which is fine for a Holley but nowhere near what fuel injection asks for. Most EFI systems want steady high pressure around 58…

How to Choose the Right Ignition System for You
The Short Answer: Your ignition system controls when and how the spark fires in each cylinder. FiTech EFI systems work with points, electronic ignition, and HEI distributors, but electronic ignition delivers a cleaner signal to the ECU and requires less maintenance. Beyond that, the key decisions are coil selection, spark plug gap, and whether you…
