Why don't you just go with solexes of webers? ALOT less hassle than Bike carbs.
Some of the Mikuni bike carbs are quite nice but the linkage/cables/manifold
etc would be a nightmare. Anyway, PHH's look just as impressive IMHO.
If you want to abuse yourself with a project just for fun, build an FI system.
That would
outperform the bike carbs anyway and be trouble free.
(Any of this would sort of be silly on a 1.6 anyway, the SU's are fine. That
goes for most 2L's
also)

Well that's the reason for the "Bank of four". These sets come on a rail, and
are fitted and removed as a unit. Sync'ing the carbs is pretty easy with
"carb stix" I do not know why these carb balancing devices are not much
considered in the auto topic group, they are standard fare with those of two
wheeled persuasion. I am going to follow the idea just for the hood popping
effect.
