Geoff/Peter
Burlen fuel services have just started to introduce fuel injection conversions for classic cars I don't know how feasible this would be for a 2 Litre Bristol but I seem to remember reading somewhere that this has already been done on a non commercial basis. I have just put an engine in my 401 which BCL told me was rebuilt by Eden Holder, the number one carb throttle body spindle or shaft was so badly worn on one end it would never have run properly.
The basic problem as I see it is that even rebuilding and re jetting original carbs may not give original performance and reproduction carbs are of variable quality.
Any thought on this option?
Geoff.
