carburated 4 liter

[cowboy93]

Has anyone ever seen an intake for an OHV 4 liter that will accept a carb? I know all 4 liters were injected, but I'm wondering if any aftermarket company made an intake to convert the motor?

No. You don't want to anyway.

 

[Snoranger]

Yes. You don't want to though.

Let me fix that for you.

Well I'll be damned. Still, don't.

 

[Snoranger]

how the hell you going to make the damn thing spark.....can you run a durrapspark set up? be kind of neat if you want to throw it into a pinto or an early ranger

You could solve the ignition problem with a megasquirt, but if you're going to go to that kind of trouble and expense you might as well run injection.

Wow...a supercharger for a carb...that would be interesting...but I think it's for the 3.8 so I'd have to do some adapting...and add about a foot to the belt drive...and rebuild my block...and for all that expense I could just turbo charge it...

I feel like Morana overprices his stuff a ridiculous amount

 

[stegomon]

how about adapting a 2.8 durraspark dizzy?

Steg, what is the problem with running a 2.8 diz on a 2.9?

You will have the same problems with a 4.0.


Now WTF would you want a carb on your 4.0?

You know you will never pass a cali emissions test like that, right?



I see your truck is an 85 2.3L so I am assuming that you are looking at a 4.0 swap and don't want to mess with the fuel system. It will be easier to just buy the donor truck and take everything.

Ewww carburetors.

 

[cody93]

the 4.0 is one of the last engines id adapt a carb too

EFI is your friend, keep it and don't look back.
