I would like to replace the stromberg carbs on a lotus/ford twin cam
head. I have been looking at various fuel injection systems. I looks as
if the BOSCH K-jetronic system would be the best choice. I believe this
is the type used on a VW GTI. The car is currently turbocharged and is
sucking through a weber downdraft.

The separate ports come out of the head and it appears injectors would
be easy to install. Has any one done this? . Does the FI system get timing
from the crank? what problems are presented with this conversion?

Any information would be helpful, including a source of reading material 
on this subject.

thanks
