Custom Carb intake modified with TB Help!!!
K I know one guy has it in here were you modify a carb intake with injector bongs and the actually have a piece made were you can adapt a normal TPI TB to it. Does anyone know who does this?:lala:
I've seen alot of people that have done that. I forget who sells it now tho...
They don't use TPI TB's. Most people buy an elbow that bolts to the carb flange and goes to a mustang TB usually. They're cheaper and have alot more options.

Accel makes one.I made my own took a TPI plenum cut it half behind the throttle cable bracket.Cut out a hole in the bottom of the plenum using a carb gasket as a template.Got a 2in carb spacer welded it to the bottom of the plenum also welded a plate to the back of the plenum where I cut it in half.Made a plate to bolt to the other side of the plenum that I drilled and taped for the vac lines.Its 5in tall and cost me $150 with the welding VS. accel's $250-$270

You might wanna try www.wilsonmanifolds.com. They can convert a carb intake to EFI and also sell a TB adapter that I *think* uses a Mustang TB. Also force fuel injection, www.force-efi.com, has the converted intakes. I looked into these options but decided against it because I did not want to use a cowl induction hood.
