Simple bolt in is a zetec or pinto 16v with carbs. Mind the car's fuel pump though. No wiring looms, no pissing about. Jet it, drive it. Seeing as how the OP keeps saying "learn" I don't think MS is right at this point.
I never learned carb setup/teardown and wish I had.
Swap MS for MtechV4, and he will get it supplied with a basemap that fires it up, and for not a lot of money a better map than that from off their rollers.
Carbs are old dead technology and how are you planning on doing the ignition on the carb setup? you'll end up on management anyway.
Plus he'll end up paying out on the rollers to get the carbs setup, where as with mappable management one of us off here will go and get it up and running for him if he needs a hand im sure, its easily done after all!
