I want to do a 2.3T blow through carb. My head is ported and polished, big valves, and an engle 111 cam. Can i use my efi lower intake that i have already knife edge ported, is there an adapter to bolt a carb on. I was thinking a holley 500cfm two barrel, or a 4barrel, with the 4 barrel i would be able to adjust my secondaries a little richer for more boost. what do yall think. I was going to run a wideband 02 sensor so i could track my mixture. is there anyone getting good numbers out of a carbed setup? thanks for the help, curtis
 
turboford.net is the best place to ask about this sort of thing.

BTW since you asked, yes Racer Walsh (and possibly Esslinger Engineering) has an adapter to bolt a carb to the EFI lower. The four barrel I've always heard recommended is the 390 cfm Holley.

That's about the extent of my knowledge on blow-through carb turbos
