    You'll need a K610 adapter kit and then decide what model Weber - either the 32/36 DGEV or the 38/38 DGES. There are intake manifold modifications you will also need to factor in (sealing the coolant port under the carb seat gasket and the coolant barb that normally runs to the Mikuni water choke). Delete the mechanical fuel pump on the head and install an electric pump by the fuel tank (a high volume/low pressure pump - check ebay, but I'd look at the Carbole 42S as it's good value for money and quieter than the Carter P4070 + more compact)

    Firstly, I want to thank you geezer for the help once again. You are much appreciated.

    Second, what would be the difference between the Weber 32/36 DGEV or the 38/38 DGES? What would be the optimal choice for my vehicle?
