I have a apir of Kamakazee cams in my bluetop Map 4age with T# adj cam gears. Is it better to switch to carbs setup (i have 2 X 40mm Webers available)or keep the Oem Inlet manifold(TVIS is thrown away and a Pacesetter 4-2-1 header is on...)
what is your opinion?
Thanks

twin 40's are pretty small nowadays and you wont be making much more than 140-150bhp on them with the chokes at their largest size, then you will get low velocity problems as the signal strength is low.

I dont know the specs of the camshafts, but if you are able to decently remap or use a good piggy back system (NOT an SAFC etc) then it could be a nice drive. All our super production based 86's ran on the std type inlet manifold with about 160-170bhp back in the late 80's.
