Change of Plan!
After careful thought, i realized the TBI isn't man enough with its 1 3/4" bores, Which i reckon will only flow around 500cfm. The other problem is that the throttle bores overlap the square manifold considerably:
Plus it looks a piece of crap too!, So I'm going to go straight to port injection.
Converting a Holley Carb into a throttle body:
After seeing a few carb to throttle body conversions, i thought i would do one too.
Problem was that i didn't have an old one lying around, Real steel sell Holley throttle
plates for £60 or complete carbs for £120 , as i wanted the throttle bores also -
[2006 Editors Note: I took this approach, because at the time cheap 4 barrel throttle
bodies didn't exist -
The man in the shop looked very bemused when i told him what i was going to do this carb:
5 minutes later....The Floats and metering blocks are gone
20 Mins later, The Choke assembly was gone.
