  1. Ok ok ok, I'll tell you what I did. So what your looking at is a holley carburetor (something very like a weber 32/36, but with less stuff, and no choke) mounted on an EA-82 spfi intake manifold that has been severely modefied. What I did was basically cut off half the mounting flange, and the water jacket in front, and do a LOT of tig welding and grinding. Like 14 hours worth... then I took a mill to it and surfaced it... drilled and tapped the holes, and voila!!! I also closed up the water bypass hose next to the thermostat, and bought a brass fitting and moved it to the front of the housing, so it could clear the advance on the distributor. Now after all this, I still managed to keep the PCV system, Evap System, and EGR system still fuctional. (I figure I should at least PRETEND to try and not be a gross polluter, stupid california smog..) For the throttle linkage, if you look, is actually off of the old carburetor, I just had to invert everything. -drilled out the spot welds for the wire guide, and flipped it over to the other side, then bent the other things around, and cut off the spring attachment, cause it was in the way... And there you have it people!!! when I stuff it and wind it up to 5500, it sounds like a friggin race car, and it hauls arse too (for an Ea81 at least)
