Hello again all,

My first post didn't do so well, so I'll give it a shot on another topic. This one is abit more critical. Ounce again, I am a shade tree apprentice and new to engines (obviously). I have a type 1 engine that was bogging at the mid range RPM's under forward acceleration, but was fine when stationary all the way through the tach. I assumed it was due to week fuel delivery from the tank, so I removed the mechanical and installed an Electronic fuel pump at the tank. This solved that problem, but now the plugs foul quickly. Do I need a fuel preasure regulator to lower the preasure to the carb? If so, how much presure? I also have a two webbers and the linkage, but if I can't figure out one carb, than I am not going to attempt sinc'ing two. I'm more electronicly enclined than I am skilled at rebuilding/tuning carbs. When I get some money saved up i'd like to go EFI/forced induction, Are there any good aftermarket EFI/turbo kits that anyone would recomend?

You want 3 lb of fuel pressure at the carb. Check CB performance for EFI/turbo kits.
