Hopefully whoever had the engine before has those empi's already jetted and setup. If so, count yourself lucky and roll with it. They should work fine...if not well have fun . |

If they are free and you can't get a credit... then try them. _________________ Glenn

What "EMPI" carbs.... HPMX 40's (?) go with them if the are second or third generation HPMX they are pretty good... Maybe better than original Weber' IDF's ... _________________ “Fear The Government That Wants To Take Your Guns" - Thomas Jefferson.

I've ran multiple sets with no issue, make sure they're jetted correctly
Only thing I'd look into upgrading would be the linkage and filter holder/brackets |
