I don't understand that, but I read it so often, I'm beginning to wonder if it's true....
And, should it turn out to actually BE true, why would anyone want to put fuel injection on his Pro Stocker and give away horsepower to the carbureted car in the other lane???
Just food for thought...

For the most part that has always been the rule, that is until direct injection gasoline. Direct injection allows for higher compression, for the risk of pre-ignition is diminished. Direct injection gasoline trumps carburetion, all things being equal.
