Title: possible to use the gti head with a twin webber carb?
Post by: dubburke on 10 December 2005, 11:53

How do you work the injector holes? anyone know of a topic for this conversion, will be using a gti head from dx engine on a 3A block in a Scirocco gt2 with twin webber 32/34 carbs, its easier than to convert the scirocco to kjet!

not sure what you mean bro? to fit twin carbs you will need a new inlet manifold as far as i know!  :smiley:

Just wondered what was needed to fit a gti engine into a gt2 scirocco using a twin webber carb instead of injection, was wondering about the injectors that are in the head, and what would be done with them, as obviously they are not needed, and how do i block the holes off?

they are in the head man. pull out the insert that the injectors sit in, go to your local engineering shop and get them to turn you something up the same size but without a whole in. make sure they are a tight fit and install with loctite.
