About this episode
Will carbs on V8 hotrods etc become a thing of the past when some alternatives are this easy? For those unfamiliar with ECU tuning, switching from a carburettor (carb) to EFI can seem daunting, but it doesn't have to be. The @EdelbrockUSA Pro-Flo 4 is designed to make the transition as simple and hassle-free as possible. With pre-calibrated sensors, a self-tuning system, and an easy-to-use app, this sequential port injection system eliminates the need for a laptop, making it one of the most user-friendly EFI solutions on the market with plug-and-play options for the Gen 3 or 4 LS, Gen 1 or 2 Ford Coyote and Chrysler Gen 3 HEMI V8's.

Injector and fuel system selection are simplified, with kits available for different power levels, and installation is made easy with a fully terminated wiring harness that requires no crimping or cutting. The distributor-based ignition system means there's no need for an additional crank trigger, further reducing complexity. The system features closed-loop control that continually learns and adapts while driving, improving fuel mapping in real-time. For those worried about fine-tuning aspects like cold starts and transient enrichment, the Edelbrock E-Tuner App provides intuitive adjustments using familiar carburetor-style terminology. This ensures that even those new to EFI can confidently dial in their setup.
