someone point me in the right direction..

I don't know if this is what i really want to do.. please don't hate, bash. Just questioning all possibilities..

Would anyone be able to tell me how to mod a carb for blow through setup? or maybe where i could read up on it? I have google'd it and searched 2nd gen forum with no luck.. This is not just for my rx I know someone that would like to do this to a 302ci, and a vw rabbit (very old) at my work.. hehehe..

p.s. the kid in the rabbit thinks he got a really fast car now. bwahahahaha

oh. i have 2 holly 650's in my basement (brand new) so if anyone knows if they can be made blow-through, that would be even better..

Also, if I do end up with a carb on my mazda. I not a complete moron, I do have a wideband o2/gauge with a bosch lsu4.2 sensor...

you can do it.... I'd call the guys at Racing Beat (who sell the carb manifold adapters for 13b's) to enquire about the details.

the carbs already have a gaskett ring around the top where the aircleaner would sit, you have to have an adapter to seal up the turbo pipe to the carb.

However... jetting a carb and setting the FPR up to get the mix right on a turbo is going to be a real PITA as compared to an injection setup.

today at work i brought a holly 650 carb with me and a newer dodge pickup w/5.2L came in. I borrowed the little adapter that they put on the top of there throttle body's on the top of the 650 and it sealed up. (that gives me a 2 3/4in dia tube for the top of the carb.)
