much prefer TB's.... less hassle once on and setup.

If you can cope with the setting up and fuel consumption issue's - cheap power

How often do they need setting up and how bad is the consumption?

if you really want them then yeah go for it, means u can loose a hell of a lot of wireing, good price too. but as adam sas they will be to big for a standard engine, maybe add cams, head work to that.......

get a set of cams, headwork etc etc before you do carbs or tTB's
