If you stick with the SA carb, you're leaving horsepower on the garage floor.
i have heard this, but the fuel consumption i have been told would be almost double with the double pumper, effectively leaving me with a total range of about 125klm,
at the moment iam getting about 240-260klm out of a tank with the 465 holley which the tank hold about 50 litres
