Swap L jet onto 2.0, New motor replacing 1.8 Ljet Options

[marksteinhilber]

So I have a tired 1.8 that's got some oil leaks, burns some oil, probably needs valve guides, but is running great on Ljet. I have a rebuilt 2.0 with the 2.0L heads, not sure if it is a 1911 0r 2056, and not sure if it is the stock cam or one with more lift and duration suitable for carbs. While I have some Italian 40 IDF Webers, tins, fuel pump, regulator, and everything needed to make it a dual Weber, I like the fact that the Bosch Ljet is all there and working beautifully. I can reach in with the key after the car has sat for days and it starts when the key is turned. I don't want to have to tear out the FI system, rewire and replumb the fuel pump, rebuild the webers, etc, etc.

My questions: Can I use 2.0 L intake manifolds and get them to line up with the 1.8 intake plenum and throttle? Are the 2.0 L manifolds the same diameter as the 1.8 and are they the same length? Can I use the standard cloth covered intake hoses or will they be short? Do I have to bend the 2.0 L manifold tubes to line up, or do I somehow rotate or clock the intake plenum? Will 1.8 injectors fit in the 2.0 manifolds, or should I get 912e injectors? I want to use a new rebuilt throttle that was bored to 47mm from Pbeslin. It solved my notorious 1.8 sticky throttle. I also plan to use 2,0 L tins for the 2.0 L heads and their spark plug orientation. Who thinks A/F ratio will go too lean above 3500 rpm?
