Default Re: Off topic engine question

for street cars a carb would do a fine job, but street cars don't get on angles of 70*. When the Jeep hits the high inclines the floats in the carb don't supply fuel to the engine, leaving you stranded in a very dangerous spot, maybe even a rollover. If I swap in a V8, It must be fuel injected. I would like to swap in a big block, but it would be too much weight, and If I were to swap in something bigger than a SB 350, I would like to swap in a caddy 500, I've heard good things about those motors. Does anyone know how much a average TPI 350 makes power/torque wise?
