Hey people,
I know it's been done a few times, just wondering what sort of modifications would have to be made to the throttle bodes for this to work.
Are the stock throttle shaft seals going to work ok?
Are there any holes that I'll have to block up or make?
They'll be going on an 18RG if I go in this direction for it.
Any input would be great, thanks
Steve M

They work fine, I blocked off the vac lines under each throttle and also the air distribution pipe ontop of the intake manifold that distributes air to all the throttles for idle up etc as I'm not using it, that was all and works fine.

Obviously great minds think alike  . This is what I was toying with for a while. For my mind, if ya gonna EFI an 18RG, do it with quads so at least there is some semblance to twin carbs.

Thanks 170bhp, it's always good to be backed up on thing like that.
Have you had any issues with leaking seals?
That's my main worry, I don't really want to have to play with stuff like working out new sealing arrangements.
