Not that I am aware of, but looks intresting, Trouble with injection like you have is it is a race style mechanical set up, and From experiance they never seem to be able to get a happy medium between idle and full throttl power, Is it a alchol set up??

Thats almost identical to the wildcat setup.

it was for sale at 450 pounds, made by Hilborn and was used on a single seater,
the idea was to change to a efi and discard the mechanical bit of it,
and use a megasquirt with diy fuel rails etc
to late its sold lol

I was going to say it looked like the old Hilborn set-ups. What a nice induction that would be for a 60's/70's british drag car resto.

Where do you get hold of these then?

I'd love a set especially at 450 notes
