Default 3gen Quad Carb Setup?

I am thinking about retireing my 86 civic to the track and was wondering if anyone had info on doing a quad carb setup on one of these, or maybe a twin two barrel setup

Also will putting a headder on the stock motor lean it out too much?

The only quad carb setups I've seen on these are people who have used motorcycle carbs fitted to modified intake manifolds. There are no off-the-shelf parts to do this with, but apparently it isn't too hard to chop the stock manifold and make it work. A few people on redpepper have done it.

The "hot" (read, expensive but more straightforward) setup is twin Weber sidedraft DCOE's. TWM used to make such a manifold but I believe it is out of production now. You can still find them used on ebay/redpepper classifieds/etc but there were probably other manufactures who made them as well.

Is your car carbed or is it a fuel injected Si? And header won't lean out a carbed engine, but *might* lean out an FI engine just a little bit. If your engine is otherwise stock then it shouldn't make enough difference to notice.

buy a gen one integera doner car. you need the motor, mounts, transmission, axles, knuckles, brake rotors and discs..

or you can use 92+dx/cx brake calipers and discs.. (easier to find pads and generally a better setup due to the piston being the same size as stock Si brakes, unlike the larger teg piston.)
