Take a look at my pix if you want to see a real Kinsler "8 stack". Mechanical FI. no electronics, which didn't come in until about 1985 or so and worked. The early Kinsler was a copy of the Lucas/McKay system with mechanical distribution of the fuel into tall stacks. BIG torque, very snappy throttle response. Seriously sucks fuel, though, particularly with 8 Liters plus.
Nice item for a sbf, though.
