2k for tb's plus mapping VS 1k max inc setup for carbs is quite a difference, especially if your on a budget
2K for TB's gets you fully mappable ignition too, your 1K carb setup, whats that going to be running on? a 1600 dizzy and just keep retarding the entire curve till it doesnt pink?
Sorry but you are talking nonsense IMHO, to get the best out of a set of carbs, you need to be either on mappable ignition or at the very least start having a custom distributor sorted with the right stops and weights etc which costs as much as having the TB's mapped!
