Is there anyone on here that has gone down the twin carb conversion route>?
I want to do an engine conversion very soon, and I was either leading towards a b230 block with a 16 valve head, the b230ft or even possibly the twin carbs?
I have owned turbo'd cars throughout most of my driving life and they are imprinted into my code, but its hard to ignore the excellence of a good ol' naturally aspirated engine. any advice or testimonials will be greatly appreciated!

Thanks lads,
I have just purchased a 1992 940 turbo se with the b230et motor for a swap. I need to wrap my head around it all before i get stuck into it, so i will see if ride_on will be generous enough to lend me some insight. Dai, You will definitely be hearing from me soon.

Mine works nicely as a road/show car but a little stressed as a track car, so depends what you want to do.
