There is a difference between response and overall performance figures. Yes, the MFI car will be snappier and have a slight edge in top end power, but you have to keep the revs up above 5000k rpm to see a slight difference. The 3.0 CIS is more reliable, broader torque band, and more fuel efficient. Adding a free flowing exhaust and muffler puts the 3.0 in the 220hp range and then it's a no contest comparison as far as horsepower/torque.
