Why do you think it needs fuel injection so badly?
Most cars like that on the road still have Carbs under the hood some have 2 or 3 carbs under the hood and they make more power than if they converted the engine to fuel injection the only way the would get close was to have direct port which I stated earlier is not an easy thing to do. The only reason you would go to fuel injection is for possibly Turbo charging or to say that you have fuel injection that's it. And with the size carb he has on the car it's plenty big enough.

While it is true that fuel injection has several advantages over a carburated engine, these only come into play in clearly defined situations.
Theres also different types of fuel injection. Port, throttle body, and direct(the newest).
Usually the efi engine is easier to tune, but the carburated engine ends up faster for cheaper.

And cars with efi are cleaner then a car with carbs.

but that doesn't matter for a car that doesn't have to pass emissions tests does it?
To stay true to the car it should be carbureted

Very few race cars would pass emissions. Even less would pass noise restrictions.

I know that I've been telling him it doesn't have to pass emissions and it's somewhat obvious a race car couldn't pass emissions especially since they don't have Cat's on them. This isn't purely a race car though it is probably a road car aswell.
