John, have to ask why you'd want to do this.  I'm not Edd China--or even 
Ant Anstead--but from all I've seen and heard just adding greater air 
flow capacity, without other mods--cam, headers, etc.--does more harm 
than good.

I think I read somewhere that Geoff Healey thought BJ8s were 
'over-carburetted' (maybe why headers supposedly add a few HP without 
other mods).
