Just really need to know how much work is needed to the bulkhead to fit them in? Carbs to be precise but tbs would probably be close enough.

Pictures if you can

Carbs for ease and simplicity / tb's for performance...but tbh you can get v good gains off both.












Turbo FTW though

dont see what you can weld up really unless you go too far down and hack into the back of the dash. nothing you can do to seal the pollen filter from the engine bay once you have a set of carbs poking through. never heard of anyone having problems with it before
