Funny  you should mention that, I had a '91 Pontiac TransSport (as you know 
but  most of VV probably doesn't) with a 3.1 with a nice 2-bbl TBI on it.  I  
was looking at putting one of those TBI units on a center mount 4-bbl  
adapter and believe it would have worked well.  It would still have  some of 
the problems of center-mounts but at least the fuel delivery would  not be 
dependent on the air velocity.

The 2-bbl TBI systems were  used on most of the 3.1 APVs and many 2.8 mini 
trucks.  The cars  generally had port injection.
