Hi Folks,

There is a problem with stewing over your build before you start your restoration. Indecisiveness! I’m going to the dark side. I want to run fuel injection in my coupe. I’m a computer guy and I want full control of my setup with megasquirt. I will still have the factory setup to fall back on if things go south. :)

I have a never-used set of triple weber’s. It is the redline kit. I sold the redline manifolds and bought a Korman one piece manifold. I have the original redline throttle linkages along with the Korman linkage.

The kit is $2K new on eBay. I figure that $1,500 is fair as the Korman intake and linkage costs about $500 new. I’ll cap shipping at $30. PM me with any questions!

This is the kit:

A real bargain.

If I didn't already have an injected engine with motronic management, based on my experience in the late '70s with my '73 e9 (which i'd converted from OE to triple 40DCOE's), I'd be all over this (well, probably not, as I'd have bought the triple carb setup within a few months after I bought this car had it been equipped with the dual downdrafts!). NO e9 produces fun cabin sounds like one with this setup.

You are going to make someone very happy Mark,

Gary-

Wow - a big change after so much anticipation. I understand, and am also befuddled at once. Worlds are colliding.

As I continue to slowly and un-methodically work on dialing in my triple weber setup, I've pondered the idea of a similar looking ITB setup. :eek:

Keep the triple side drafts as an ornament.
Nothing sexier

Just what I need, $1,500 garage art! :D

They are programmed to recieve..............but can never leave!
I've heard them referred to as "The Hotel Fuel Injection". Such a lovely place...

Aww come awwwn people! I was kind of expecting a lot of interest in these carbs, and slightly less interest in Eagles references. :D

Markos! Once again, you just throw up a very very tempting item! I agree with others, this is a great deal!

I used to have the same manifold, maybe you bought it from me. I sold it so long ago, I don't remember.:)

Markos - take it easy!

Ha! I’m chill. It’s just that I’m almost done with my restoration and I need my motor tuned just right. Oh wait, I haven’t started my restoration and none of this really matters. :D

That was a lame attempt at another eagles reference for you ;)

Welcome to our “Club” Markos...
Pay no attention to the carb people.
They are not your friends. We are now..
If you sign up for our lifetime Fuel Injector program, your first injector is free.
i'm ready to sign up ... i guess the first injector free doesn't apply to me - haha
