Default Carb Conversion questions?

I am looking to put a Weber 32/36 Conversion Kit on my 1987 Accord and i am wondering if anyone else has done this and if so how well it worked for you. I am also wondering if the kits come with detailed instructions as to which vacuum line are removed or rerouted?

No need for instructions on which vacuum lines to remove. You remove all of them. Then you just run a line from manifold to the vacuum advance, and one to cruise control, if you have it. It's definitely worth it. But might I recommend getting a Weber 38 instead. More power, and easier tuning.

I just converted to the Weber 38 and bought it through redlineweber.com, great prices and great people able to answer all your questions.
Here is a link to my thread on the conversion, https://honda-tech.com/forums/showth...ght=carb+weber
If you have any questions feel free to email me at ian1006@aol.com. Basically though you rip every single vacuum line out of the car, all the control boxes, everything, then install the carb and put one vacuum line to the distributor. Seriously, its easy.

This is the kit I was looking at:

Also was thinking of just doing a fuel injection swap if i can pick up a doner car for around the same price. Just not sure which one would be the better choice. Do you happen to have any pics of the carb installed?

I havent taken any pictures yet since the linkage is all ghetto rigged because I didnt buy the adapter they sold...I cant bring myself to take pictures of it. I bought my kit for three hundred though plus shipping. I dont know much about fuel injection swap or anything about Accords...
