Default 500efi hp gains

Is there any gain changing a 500efi to carb?

I would think you will see some HP gains with a decent intake and carb, but I dont think its worth the trouble. But there's more to making it run than just an intake and carb.

Minor head porting, monoblade throttle body and a good tune will get you 525hp
