Question What type of induction are you using?

Just interested to see how much variability we have out there and what is the most popular option.

Suprising that the 8bbl injection setups are as popular as they are. I like them, but they aren't cheap. Folks are willing to pay for cool stuff it appears.

Re: What type of induction are you using?

I have seen some adaptations of the weber design carbs(48IDA) to EFI. Most of the ones I have seen are used on VW Type 1 and Type 4 engines. Has anyone checked into these units???....(I'm sure they are pricey)....as for me...I'll be sticking with a 4-V carburetor or a throttle body. (All subject to change in the mind of the dreamer,of course!)

Re: What type of induction are you using?

Weber carbs are a master piece of the Ford legend engines. So when I had planed to build a Cobra replica I had selected a Weber set. As I had Yates head cylinders, it was necessary to create a special inlet manifold to adapt it. Big job . I have selected the 48IDF type instead of the traditional 48IDA type for 2 reasons:
- there are designed with a shorter barrel center line that was more appropriated for Yates inlet ports
- There are thee last Weber evolution and there are more efficient at partial trottle opening (from time to time you need to be at partial opening )

Re: What type of induction are you using?

Hopefully a TWM, Kinsler or similar 8bbl injection. Most likely will use an
Electromotive TEC3r, but if I grow dissatisfied with the TEC, I'll pony up
for the MoTEC.
