I've been thinking about that myself - rebuilding my 2L now to solex specs
but I still have a problem with having a $2500 pair of carbs on a $7500 car.
I'd be interested.

Hey guys, this and other posts have me wondering..... would there be any
interest in a reliable (Bosch) Electronic Fuel Injection kit for the
Roadsters? I'm pretty sure I have the means to produce one if I put my mind
to it. I'm planning on making one for myself when the time comes.
I would imagine the cost to be under $700 with used parts, but you'd have a
damn near perfect stochiometric ratio at all times - unlike carbs! What do
you think?
