You would be better off with bike bodies and injection, you are going to need management to run the ignition anyway so you might as well do the job properly

With carbs you won't need management, but with throttle bodies you will, if fitting carbs you will need to sort the ignition side of things, if going tb's might as wll just use a ecu that does it all anyway.
As said tb's so much better driveability generally than carbs.
