Don't think space would be a problem Seems the hardest part of this would be an adapted for the flange. From there is would just be set up time. What are your thoughts for an adapter?

Why should I pay $850 for a EFI carb when you can put a turbo for almost the same money?

Carbed cars have a lower probability of KABANG.

I suspect this adapter would work.

But turbo is more fun and you don't have to be crazy on the boost.
