Fuel injection for a bug 1916cc engine?
Hello gurus
I have a trike with a 70's bug engine bored out to 1916cc. It's too slow and I thought that EFI would be the way to go. Can this be done? If so, who
should I contact? (I'm in Melbourne but can travel) and what kind of cost are we talking about?

VWCOOL - Can't remember what carbs they are but the size up from them was going to be 44inchers. They are bigger than the standard twin carbs but
smaller than 44s. |

There were a few trikes made a few years ago with standard cams but big-bores (1916cc). These engines didn't perforem very well... My engine builder
has re-cammed several, allowing the engine to breathe properly and develop a bit more power. A properly-built and cammed twin-carb 1916 in a trike
will be SCARY faST.
