Lol. Why go backwards on technology? There is a reason that everything went to fuel injection.
Also, your engine is VTi (Variable Timing injection). It is going to take a little more than putting a plate and carbs and have your car run. The ecu isn't going to know what to do, the fuel pressure is going to be way to high, the manifold is going to need to be custom made, the air/fuel ratio is going to be out of whack, etc. I could go on all day.
Not cheap and a waste of time in my opinion.
