a better intake.

OK think about this. We know that the intakes on our cars are the limitting factor in making gobs of N/A horsepower. So the idea i have is take a carbaraor intake like the GMPP one or the Victor Jr., boss it for some injectors and slap it in. I know there is gonna have to be some finagaling to get it to fit under the cowl but if there is a will there is a way. I have seen only a couple F/I do. One would think that this would be far superior then anything on the market. Has this been tried with bad results? Is it a fitment issue? Is it a money issue?

don't sheetmetal intakes have fuel injection?

i'm sure someone has done it. the harrop setup has independant throttle bodies. that goes one step further.
