Gents,  we have been discussing fuel injection, performance, boost, and the
few  options out there for corvair consideration. Here is a new site that
looks  more reasonably priced for parts. I sent them a message which I will
post  when I get a  response.

If what  I read is true, they will work with anyone to build what you need.
These  look like throttle body style injection but I see no reason why the
hole  for the injector could be left undrilled or welded shut, and then
multiport  could be used. See what you think. I saw a two throttle body
system for a 4  cyl that was $495 that included the throttle bodies, 
throttle
position  sensor, fuel rail.

If anyone wants to get really serious about an EFI conversion, call me  
about a pair of modified 140 heads that I would sell. The intake sides have 
been  modified to mount a pair of 48 IDA Weber carbs. (One per head.) The 
welding  and machine work is quite nice. The carb mounting surface is a couple of 
inches  above the 140 log. HOWEVER - mounting a pair of carbs on them would 
be a  poor performance system. Since the carbs are feeding into the 140 
intake logs,  the air flow as you open the throttles would slow down and fuel 
would drop  out of suspension. Using Fuel Injection would present a better 
fuel atomization,  since the fuel input is calculated, not determined by air 
volume/speed.  I'll send photos if someone is interested.
