    I have a '71 2800CS with the dual Zenith carbs and am toying with the
  idea of ripping them out and substituting a fuel injection
  system off a later model 530i.  They have the same heads, transmission, etc
  so the only problem (besides wiring and locating the unit) that I can see
  is that, although they use the same block, the 530i has 200cc's more of
  displacement.  Now the question..  Is this idea going to work?.
    The fuel injection has an air flow sensor to help it meter the fuel/cyl
  and I'm wondering if that can go ahead and compensate for the displacement
  difference at both the high and low end.  Anybody out there done something
  similar or know somebody that has? 

              Thanks,
