Back in the day people used to swap in ZC motors with the EFI removed and twin motorcycle carbs installed. You'd have to find a seriously old school tuner though. I almost bought an 86 HF to do this swap to but nobody remembered how to do it. Also, R&D makes SOHC drag motors that are carbed. The full thing is $$$, but maybe they have a carb conversion kit. Installing EFI in your car is not worth it. Better to sell and buy an Si.
