It seems to me that everyone wants to change to carburated from tuned port injection. Tell ya what, I will trade you. You can have the bad gas mileage! I don't want it any more! TPI is infinatly adjustable and tuneable. It is more efficient, any why would you go through all the trouble? TPI is wicked. I want it! Read up on it in the TPI section! If your still convinced, talk to me. I want your setup.

Good point.

But, I doubt anyone is going to trade a complete TPI for a CC carb.

BTW, which of your sig vehicles get the bad gas mileage - the Honda?

I have a nearly complete TPI in the garage attic. I kept the CC carb setup because:
a) I had it, it runs, and passes emissions as-was, (an important factor), and I figured if the factory could get a ZZ4 to pass emissions with a CC carb, I could with my 305.
b) For the direction I was going, the TPI was going to need runners at a minimum, to get the RPM range up to the cam range (I was building around a ZZ4 cam until I discovered my roller block was cracked).
c) "...nearly complete" means missing injectors, fuel rails, and fuel pressure regulator. Getting just those pieces was going to cost more bucks.

Perhaps some day, but for now, the CC carb is the induction for HP production.

As there is no question here, I'm locking it. If anyone is actually willing to trade him, email him at:
