Never on a stock port engine but that won't matter. The IDA can be tuned for everything from stock ports to whatever port you dare run. The venturi size that comes with the IDA is a good place to start (IIRC 37mm I forget) for your 12A on the street. It might be a little touchy just off idle.

The only con, beside that fact its a carb, is no choke. With a little foot work for about a minute this can be dealt with though.

What do you mean by little foot work? it runs bad off cold start untill running temp is achived?

Yes, just keeping the RPM's up with your foot until it warms up.
