Is this what modifing old cars is about?

Surely the point is to make an improvement over the stock equipment?
Carbs are not going to achieve it in my opinion, as the stock injection system say on a KV engine isnt restrictive at the power levels the head is capable of supporting in stock trim.
Im all for modding engines, cars etc but id not sacrifice power economy and reliability for uniqueness, however appealing the idea.
Having said that though, each to his own, and if Gaz or indeed anyone did do a conversion to carbs id not knock such an effort id always applaud it.
