you'll need a gslse lower manifold to bolt up a 2 barrel carb.
an s4 lower may work also, im not 100% though.
then use the racing beat upper.

the S5 setup carbed with liteweight fly and RB exhaust should make decent power. considering s5 was rated at 160. I was going to buy camocarls s5 engine but i was too late. looking for another deal now.

Im not sure pbly to the BHP, most manufacture do BHP. 168 to the wheels in a 2400lb car is something to respect IMO. and gas mileage aint too bad either.

This sounds like one hell of an idea. I always think of dropping a TII engine in while maintaining the fuel injection and ecu, but a carbed 13B would just be downright mean, and a lot easier to do wiring wise.

If one wants to build a carbed 86+engine, use the turbo irons, ported, and the NA internals for max power. The aux ports will improve low end torque, if operational, but they suck when it comes time to port.
