I get a Summit Racing catalog in the mail occasionally and like to flip through it. I noticed with the one I got yesterday that four barrel conversion kits for hot rods are fairly common now and the Summit brand version is about $1,000 supposedly complete….just pull off you old carb and install the throttle body, hook up the provided sensor and off you go. Whether it's actually that simple, I don't know. You have to wonder how many folks here would be jerking around with installing the factory FI system on their 1300s or early 1500s or even playing with larger Webers on their carbed cars if they had access to something like the modern throttle body kits.
Yes, I know you can get DCOE, DCNF and DGV type throttle bodies but you have to make your own "kit" and the costs will ultimately be a lot more than $1,000. For someone like me it would be a useless endeavor.
