sblake01 Posted June 29, 2006 Share #2 Posted June 29, 2006 Firstly, welcome to the site. I'm more versed at fixing EFI that swapping it to carbs but at least one of the other members has done it and maybe this post will help.http://classiczcars.com/forums/showpost.php?p=149555&postcount=6 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/20597-good-morning-im/#findComment-172744 Share on other sites More sharing options...

sblake01 Posted June 29, 2006 Share #4 Posted June 29, 2006 Don't take this the wrong way, Bill, but how can you mispell 'therapy' with the correct spelling just a word or so away in your post?

You didn't mention what carbs and manifolds you are swapping to. Knowing this will help us point you in the right direction.

agemeansnothing Posted June 29, 2006 Share #8 Posted June 29, 2006 When you swap I would recomend round top Su's but, if you have all little extra cash go for the Webers.

sblake01 Posted June 30, 2006 Share #9 Posted June 30, 2006 ..........PS. It looks a lot better with out FI! Hey, I like the look of the EFI system. But what I like even more is that it doesn't get out of adjustment once everything's right. I haven't had to deal with any EFI problems on either car in almost two years.
