    Carburated 3100

    Just curious, has anyone every tried to run a 3.1 or 3100 with a carburator?

    I'm not planning on running mine with one. I just wondered if it has been done, and what needs to be done to make it work.

    it's been done, usually for sand rails and other similar apps, but it's a PITA, especially considering all the power/economy lost due to it.
