Out of curiosity why are you switching to carbs? Are their any advantages to this or do you just want to be the only one with carbs?

This has been covered so many times...

Use a 13B Nikki manifold (from older 13Bs). Convert to a dizzy. Go to a lower pressure fuel system.

And all for a downgrade in power.
