DOHC ZC question

ok, so ive got a 91 wagon with a DOHC ZC swap

111.jpg

and i have a set of honda individual carbs

396.jpg

now the way i understand it is there are alot of big power hondas running carbs and i was wondering
if mating these 2 together is even a feasible project or if i should take the carb components off and
run them as just individual throttle bodies.

any and all ideas/feedback/advice will be greatly appreciated.

    we're hard to impress because ITB's have been done and perfected. Normally people use the ITB's off a motorcycle though.

    Check out some of the vw guys cars on like vortex. Some will cut the intake manifold and run silicone couplers to the carbs. You may want to get a manifold flange made with tubes welded to it to mate the carbs to. The big issues are getting a proper vacuum reading, always having to rejet it and don't forget to get a low pressure fuel pump. With a set of some wicked cams, you can gain a really responsive engine. Love how carbs have that instant throttle response. I hope you take a go at it, this can be a really cool project. But like 503 said, itb's may be a better choice. I think obx has an affordable set.
