Facet electric pump with regulator.
Or std mech nova pump.

You can use the 1.4nv dizzy and coil, altho you want mappable ignition to get the most from the engine.

As for jet sizes, best speaking to bogg bros, i think you just drill them out to a guestimate of the size you required.

If the bike the carbs come off has an electric pump then use that, as it will be set to the correct pressure allready.
To get the most value from fitting them you'll want a camshaft of around 290-300 degree duration.

1,4nv=Nova 1.4SR
& Mk2 Astra iirc

You will need either fit/use a carb tank/lines and pump, or a Injection tank/pump/lines. The 1tr one is no use to you.

Std GTE head is fine, they have bigger valves than 1.2/1.3/1.4sr heads.

Something around Kent AST2, Piper BP300 would be my choice.

Power wise, probably same as t40s, around 130 ish bhp.
