Not that I don't believe you or anything, but where did you get that
info? I'm still trying to decide what sort of 360 I'll be putting in my
Dak, but the 380 crate (as a starting point) is one of the options I'm
looking at. I will definitely be using fuel injection (aftermarket). As
I understand it, the only thing you need vacuum for as far as fuel
injection is concerned, is to get accurate readings out of the MAP sensor.
Anyway, do you have any more info about your statement? If the 380
isn't going to work with EFI, I'd rather know about it now, rather than
later, after I buy the thing. :-)
That seems hard to believe though, as there are some wild, wild motors
out there which run just fine with EFI, and the 380 crate seems rather
tame, relatively speaking. Of course, one could always go to alpha-n
if there isn't enough vacuum, but I'd like to try to stay with speed
density if at all possible.
Thanks!
