Hello
Why would you want to go back to a carb?

I'll trade you my carb and intake and all the stuff off my 87 for all the FI stuff off yours. And I'll pay shipping for both.

is this what you are asking about?
http://racerwalsh.zoovy.com/product/RWA1232A_ALUM/RWA1232A_ALUM__adaptor_efi_2bbl_1_Alum.html
if so, they also offer the same thing in a 2" tall as well.

I run pony stock motor, in my race car, if you take a fuleinjected intake with a adapter on it with a 350 holly carb it will make more RPM'S

RPM's or HP? I know the roller cam 'allows' for higher RPMs...

If you are running pony stock you need to keep that website in your favorites. They have parts for your 2300 ministock that nobody else has.
The factory EFI intake ('85 to '88 Ranger, to '93 Mustang) out performs ANY aftermarket intake. The 2300 Holley gives a huge boost in H.P. as well as increasing the the Rpm the motor can perform at. The Factory Roller cam actually reduces the usable RPM of the motor, It doesn't have the failure rate of the flat tappet type cams though.
do you know where I can get a fuleinjector intaks, and any other places to get a adapter

That's what I'd heard...you can rev a roller cam higher without tappet failure or, I think the term used was, flutter...
Or was it float...not sure now...

I made my own.
I then put a 2bbl adapter on top. I plugged the injector holes but, the best way is to have them tig welded then open the ports back up.
Roller cams float more that is why they make rev kits for v-8s. It is an extra set of springs that go in between the lifters and the heads. Racer walsh and Esslinger sell springs that will solve the problem. The Factory roller cam springs are also softer than the old flat tappet ones. I'm also not sure if the roller can be used in mini stock.

They are better. The flat tappet cams are notorious for failure. The roller cams last forever. The motor runs smooter, less peaky. Less friction means the oil doesn't get broke down as fast which, in turn means the motor will last longer. Also, as the flat tappet cam wears down it contaminates the oil which reduces the engines life.

Ah, OK...thanks for the input MP...didn't mean to try to jack the thread but when you THINK you did something to make a better truck (aka spending $600 on the head) it's kinda nice to know you did the right thing...
