Carb 13B engine?
Hi, I was wondering if ther 13B engine came with a carb setup or was it only FI?

If it was only FI, are you able to convert these over to a carb setup?

Thanks! First of many more questions.

You can buy 3rd party carb for it. Search the threadz. In the GSL-SE it was fi only (factory).

There was a thread around here about a car 13b recently I believe to a search, but they come factory with EFI.

the pre rx7 13b engines(from the 70's) were carbed. but carbs can be used on the FI engines too.

Carbed 13Bs were from 74-78. 84+ are all FI. There are manifolds for all models of engines and RB isn't the only supplier.
