No Point really. Just curious if anyone had done it before.

Um, there's an OTS solution available, so you know plenty of people have done this already.

B series manifold for Weber DCOE carburetors:

The problem with trying to search for such things on the net, is that the Volvo B18 engine came with a carb, and there is reasonable aftermarket support for that engine.

Over here people use FCR motorcycle carbs. In the past saw quite a few carbed ZC's, B16's and B18's but those setups fell to the wayside after affordable engine management became available. You will need to good at reading plugs to tune a carb setup properly. AF meters make it easier but plug reading is a must!

The SS Works B18C (230hp) CRX with FCR carbs scoots around Tsukuba circuit in the 59sec range. There are lots of 500whp turbo cars that do not accomplish this feat.

Yep the ELF CRX saw it Honda Tuning, stupid light CRX.
Personally I would never do a carb, FI is much easier to control and fine tune.
