Just one thing to remember Ben - don't get caught by the cops with a car that has retrofitted carbies - you are breaking the ADRs the car was built to and the EPA boys will then defect it regardless of how well it runs. If it's a track car only then there's no worries :)
Not talking you out of it, but I'd hate to see all your hard work done away by a failure to meet ADRs
Never herad of efi->carby conersions. SOunds interesting :)
Is the gains from muiltple tb's that more then say other more traditional mods?
All good responses ;) - but it is a idea bring toyed with for quite a while now - not being up for a total hybrid conversion - but more for bolt on bits. It has shown repeatedly about the ability of such a DCOE setup on a ZC spec engine , for more than likely a purpose built drag/track car :)
Win , it wouldnt be a step backwards....it would be a step sideways on teh weekend :)
in fact alot of track racers/tuning houses in jap converted EFI to carby due to the throttle respone and cheaper/wider tuning advantage.
and i think spoon dc2 race car uses keihi FCR flat side carby http://www.club4ag.com/faq%20and%20t...arbutetors.jpg[/url]
Having run 35mm Dell orto DHLBs on a EB3/EN1 hybrid with an AT engineering manifold and DCOEs on a Jackson manifold on a EW2 in SBCs (1st gen Civics), all I can say is the Aussie summers aint kind to throttle response with performance carb motors. I'm now going to butt out as you are set on them Ben :)
Check the ADRs though :)
have you talked to Injection Perfection Ben?
Give them a call maybe?
HEhehe - a big thumbs up to your call Setanta !Quote:

BUT...Aussie summers , let alone aussie ADR's , police ETC will not take kindly to such a sidestpe in injection - Ive spoken to the RTA and short of clever engineering , this ZC setup that I wouldnt mind seems further and further a "no-go".
Basically , IF i can do such a thing with no troubles i will :) , but possibly it will only be a track or drag strip racer .... :?:
