Hey Josh, PM me with all the needed things for that swap. I have thought about this for ever with all the EFI issues we have had with the FC. Also when we do the calipers, I request a test drive please, or whenever it is tuned well.

I Figured out my No boost controll issue. The wastegate control hose had split at the bottom near the WG itself. Must have been going slowly because now it is a new hose and it boosts 7 PSI, Whereas before it was getting to 12. So it must have been bleeding of boost pressure before the gate. Anywys, Now I get to retune the gate spring

Dave, its just the RB upper intake and a weber carb. We got a low pressure fuel pump in there right now temporary, but will be getting a higher volume pump tomorrow or sometime. Keep it regulated to 3.2 max, and for a stock 6 port and a 48 carb you get

Venturi - 40mm
Fuel Jet - No. 195
Air Jet - No. 205
Emulsion tube - F-4
Needle Valve - 250

And that should get you running! The throttle bracket came from a Nikki carb, I have another one here if you need it. Stock everything else.

Josh, carb looks good. Big two barrels rock. Make sure you get a decent air filter or that thing will suck every piece of crap that flies buy. Make sure the filter leaves at least 2 inches of clearance above the air horns or it will affect your flow.

Got the wastegate tuned in today at lunch. It holds a steady 10 psi until about 6k then it creeps up to 1 bar! Which I think is OK because I am running so damn rich up top anyways. Well when I did a 3rd gear pull I was pulling 1 bar and it broke loose at about 95mph!! The car is a new beast. Almost like a Noz button with the overboost up top.

Why is it that most FC's get hit in that exact same spot. Exactly where Ant's get nailed..

Hey Josh, How much was an hour of dyno time at App.? I want to go back and dial in boost to accomodate the fuel i have already
