Firstly yea you could put a carb on it but you would have to change the tank, cylinder head cam carrier, dissy, coil and loom.

Secondly yes the engine will have an ecu its under the glovebox.

Is there any reason you want to chang to a carb as the setup you have now is alot more reliable an you wont see much more power in swapping it over?
