Is a 2.0 16v Pump suitable?

1.4 16v i'd say a 16v pump would be fine

No, a 2l 16v pump puts out a LOT of fuel for a high pressure injection system.
You need a low pressure pump (facet etc) for carbs.

Or a injection pump and a regulator capable of dropping 50/60psi down to 5psi

So whats the best GM item to us so? I'd like to do it on a budget but if needs must, I'll get the Proper one.

I used a SPi pump with my twin 40s
And then a regulator to drop the pressure

And that worked alright?

Adam, can I ask you your opinion on fitting the lot to my 1.4 16v. Is it gonna be as much hassle as finding a Imobiliser set for the car? I've looked everywhere and no joy. Opel wont even sell me the lot.

Considering it'll need be mapped/setup etc, it will get expensive.

Hence why i gave up on the idea(i had a complete bike tb setup.....)
