so:

it's a 1.3SR, which you are putting a 1.6 GTE engine in running the 1.3SR carb?

If your changing from a carbd engine to carb another then no.

No, if your running the car on carbs still, you can keep the carbed tank and lines.

Also, the mechanical fuel pump will be sufficient, if you plan on keeping this somehow.

urm ? same difference. Carbs, Carb, Carbi, carbies, carbedarbedars!

Leave the Tank and lines as they are.

If your attempting fit a single carb to a gte engine you may aswell just stick a 1400Sr engine in.

No single carb inlet fits the GTE head, and it will loose you a lot of power of standard EFi system.
