Ea82t heads on carb motor
Ea82t heads on carb motor
Anyone fitted twin port injector heads on carb block and then modify the injectors turbo intake to take a webber, I have a turbo motor but I am thinking I want to keep the carb as more reliable.....no electronics. And what is the opinion of performance over standard engine with webber. Turbo cams same as carb cams?

Carburettor more reliable?
I cant see why not, it would give you an increase in flow capacity. Stick with the carb cams though, turbo cams reduce the exhaust scavenging, which will hurt performance.

might be a clearance issue of a Hitachi sittin' on the mpfi inlet, unless you shove a lift kit in ??? Not sure where the exhaust scavenging comes into play of the turbo cams. I run turbo cams, turbo heads and mpfi inlet manifold on a carb block and slugs. Really is relucatant to lose traction on take off even in the wet which is a good thing. Foot to floor and it really boogies and is a fair bit stronger when towing compared to my EA81's I have had over the years. No turbo no more ? Where is the fun in that ?
Hi Steptoe. In answer to your question "No Turbo anymore?"
It really is a matter of isolation, I do need to keep things simple out here. I was going to swap over harnesses and such for turbo, but when it comes down to it, I need simple equipment to see me home, It is a long way from any where when you travel in central aus. I have drown a forrester a number of years ago in a remote creek and even tho I pulled the plugs to get water out it started, if I had fried the electrics I would still be out there.

I'll have a 2 inch lift with 3 inch strut spacers, with 2wd rear shocks, 1 inch front strut shaft extensions, and new springs and strut mounts. so with the 2 inch body lift I am assuming it'll take a webber, if not I will put on the bonnent from the turbo car as it has a WRX looking scoop on it for the intercooler intake.(nice big hole above the carb). I like the auto in the bush so that will also stay (with the addition of a sump guard), but have a additional auto cooler with fan, I'll do away with the engine fan and run an addition elct fan.
