What's the best system i can have using mainly original parts?
from searching, i have gathered that the efi manifold with the injector holes blocked off and a mixer in place of the throttlebody would be ideal, but what mixer/gas carb would suit that.
ATM im looking into a Petrol carb converted to gas. Maybe a Quadrajet, or because the carb essentially becomes a throttlebody, maybe i should go with twin varijets or triple webbers for throttle response.
Ideas, Ideas............

HEY VINTAGE , HOW GOOD ARE THE 225 iMPCO GAS METERS?
I am thinking that it might be a good option..... and do i have to run a new Impco converter to use this option ,as the fella at the gas shop recommended, or would my Landi converter be ok ?
Thanks f
