At some point, my motor (1974 2.0L) will need a rebuild. I'm not going to go the /6 conversion on this car. If I rebuild the motor to a 2056 or 2270 displacement, can I still use the FI system (D-jet)? Or is there some spot in here where it is better to switch to carbs? Or if I wanted to have FI then switching to L-Jet instead?
Happy to do some reading if you have it... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chowtime.gif) |

The attached images show 2 liter heads, 912E runners and 1.8 L-jet plenum mounted for use. The only modification I did was reorient one of the runner tubes to better point at its plenum port. Longer than stock connection hoses are called for (probably sourced from McMaster-Carr).
