But its draw through (eurrrrkkk)!!

The fuel gets centrifuged by the compressor wheel, odd mixtures, cold starting is a bitch, and throttle response can suffer (but thats a nice short inlet, so it probably doesnt matter)

Blow-through is the closets thing to direct port injection you'll get.......

Lotus Esprit Turbo used a 45 Dellorto with blow-thru.
Parts for that carb are still available from www.dellorto.co.uk
