Hi All -
Got a line on a rebuilt 2.7 out of a 1977 911S. It is 100% complete including the full CIS system. What kind of power loss would I experience if I stripped off the CIS and went with carbs? The motor is only 165hp to begin with...

Thanks!
Scott S

I know a few folks that run Webers on an otherwise stock 2.7L.
You won't loose power...more likely you'll gain a few ponies and a hell of a lot of throttle response. Your gas mileage will suffer....if only because you'll play the Weber organ every chance you'll get. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

There are very few things in life more convoluted than the CIS intake tract.


(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) Totally!

Warning: the Weber Organ is closely followed by an annoying Siren Song if you're not careful when you play.
