can anyone pleace explain what this part is
Holley 350 4 barrel Racing beat kit with manifold
and with those mods what do you think the gas mileage on this thing might get? im not looking for a high gas mileage car, but i will mainly be driving it and i dont want the mileage to be 10mpg.

He switched from fuel injection to carbuerator. I don't know if switching from fuel injection lowers mileage or not but I'm guessing it does. If I baby it I can get 20 in town. Otherwise its usually 15-17mpg.

does have the carburator help the car in anyway?
could if i bought this guy could i put the direct injection back into the engine and would gas mileage be much better. I know it lowers the gas mileage a lot with the streetport.
Right now im looking for a daily driver that is fun, but i dont want to be at the gas station every day.
thanks

The carbeurator, header (specifically designed for that carbeurator btw), street port, no cat, and catback mean that car makes serious power. Unless it's broken. Stock gas mileage is 17/25, but the carbeurator and street port are gonna make that a little lower (3-5 lower?). And there's no way that thing will pass smog without a cat. Might not even pass with one, thanks to the port and carb.
To check it for problems, get a buyer's guide from the forum FAQ and/or google. You can also have a mechanic look at it. I mean, maybe it's pristine and he's just strapped for cash or maybe he's selling it because he got a bad motor rebuild. You won't know until you check it out. For a good price, see kbb.com. The mods listed will add some value, but not nearly what he spent on them.
