Counter to popular belief I do not stay up late inventing hairbrained questions for you all, although that is tempting sometime given the wealth of knowledge here. As of around 10:30 AM today this will be a real life scenario.
Let’s imagine I have a 2.0l case running 1.8 heads with a single Weber that runs but I want to convert back to FI. Let’s further image that I have both a 1.8 FI set up and a 2.0 FI set up sitting in the shelf. Which FI set up would I be best advised to use on this engine, and for bonus points and adding to the community knowledge here, why? BTW - planning on doing a tech day on this with/for the SoCal mafia once I get a plan together. Given what seems to be a trend back to FI (or at least renewed interest) I think it could be a useful tech day for the community. Thanks! |
