I looked into it. It's been done.

It's not worth it.

Carbs allow better air/fuel flow

I want carbs because I feel that it will be cheaper to tune and my motor will take better advantage of them then the EFI system.

Carbs are nice, easier to play with, no ecu to really worry about, but they have to be adjusted properly...vs inj you are actually losing out nowadays, but they are cheaper to set up. Initially that is, they can get pretty pricey.
