    It wont be much with carbs on there own...

    You need to look for otherways, a cam change usually compliments carbs very well.

    With properly set up carbs with correct choke sizes etc etc on a standard engine you'll end up with 115 to 120 hp realisitically i think.. or 140hp max power figures.. ::

    what do you mean by conversion? 2.0 conversion?

    If your going to go for carbs, you will need internal engine modifications to get the most out of them. Depends how much money you want to spend on your car. It can get pricey, but personnaly i think there well worth it
