Hi My dad bought a mk 4 spitfire with a herald engine. Since this i a single carb engine, and not the original, I would like to make electronic fuel injection for it. But is there anyone who has made an inlet manifold for minimum two injectors?

i supose it may be possible to convert it to single point injection.
but you can buy a ventury that will fit between the carb and the airfilter box.
My guess would be to find a manifold for twin-choke carbs then fit throttle bodies and suitable injectors onto that. Check out "Retro Cars" magazine, there's a lot of stuff about DIY electronic injection systems in there.

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold. I remember "Jeppe Holm" saying something like:
You could make up a 4-runner manifold and look at getting a MegaSquirt setup with 4 injectors.
If all you want is a 2 injector manifold, try to find the twin Stromberg manifold as a starting point and use two throttle bodies with injectors.
If you're going this far, wouldn't it be easier to simply fit a modern engine and box?
