GM 2.4L TBI - Can I mount it as a sidedraft ?

[dtolan]

Hello,
I am working on getting my MG running with the MS and I just picked up a GM 2.4L TBI. I need to have an adapter made and was looking to figure out if I could keep it as a sidedraft (such as I have currently with the SU Carbs) or if I need to mount it in a vertical position?

I think it would look better if it was still a sidedraft and it would allow a better airflow (no clearance issue with the hood) - but, is there any reason that would I should not do it.

Thanks for any insight

It shouldn't matter what position it's. That's one of the big advantages to EFI in off road vehicles. Even in extreme off camber situations, the EFI continues to work correctly.

IIRC, Lance set up a GM TBI like that on a Prelude. They run fine that way.

2.4 TBI?

Do you mean 2.5L? Used from about 1987 to 1990? (With the TBI EFI I mean, the 2.5L was around a lot longer.)

The 2.4L was also called the "Quad 4", and used multiport EFI, that had a dry throttle body.
