I can't remember what it's called, but there's basically a weber form factor replacement fuel injection system that does the same thing. Throttle body, injector and sensors, etc. Just mount it in place of your weber carb.
I considered this, but I'm going mega squirt and factory EFI hardware to maintain the port injection benefits.

After many delays on a shipping time, I cancelled the Holley Sniper 1100 and ordered the Holley sniper 2GC Small Bore (550-865) because they had it in stock.
I'll be doing an install on my '72 Bay, I'll post a link here once it is started.

here is the install thread...

Guess you'll be making an adapter anyway. It almost looks like the two butterflies might be a larger area ?

No adapter will be needed, it'll bolt onto one of those universal center carb intakes.
