You could use webers. But they don't tune as well as even crappy aftermarket ecus. They tune best for WOT. They wear and get leaky/sloppy and the mileage goes to hell.

All caps is yelling BTW.

Fun idea though. They have been used on everything from Datsun's to Porsche. Poor reliability in comparison to stock EFI but if you already had them and switching to a different chassis for racing they may make more sense. A 45mm Weber is a nice size, should provide flow for WOT 9 grand no problem. But only good for a race application not the street, as your tune would suck at partial throttle.

Yeah....Lotus 7 (real Lotus 7) application. My car weight approx 999lbs and trying to make it more lighter & simple setup by taking the intake and replace it with a Japanese super bike carb Keihin flatslide FCR http://www.sudco.com/keihin.html#FCR
Although weber came to mind, I am no fan of weber setup. I more into Japanese crutch rocket setup.

In regards to my question: if S2000 I will lose power fitting weber carb or any carb to an s2000 is debatable. I guess depend what type of motor. I will probaby agree it will lose power but needs some experimenting to do. If you change the compression, cams and head porting, it might behave differently.

I used to have a 4age toyota fuel injected (115hp) and transformed to carb using the Keihin superbike 42mm FCR and dynoed 190hp wrhp. An increase of 75hp. I believed the weberized version of Toyota Atlantic motor neted 240hp using two 45mm sidedraft webers.
