You are correct, there is no ‘need’ for most people, it’s a ‘want’ -- just like other things. Drum brakes and points ignitions and single-field alternators are quite functional, yet people install discs and halogen headlights and MSD boxes and other stuff. Because we want to.
After working on & racing FWD turbo mopars for over 10 years going back to my RWD roots was a painful experiance!
A well tuned carb is a wonderful thing but can't hold a candle to a well tuned EFI system.
My 67 Dart will have multi-port EFI with a Megasquirt controller.
