Converting to throttle body injection

Asked by mechanic1968 Sep 09, 2014 at 06:33 AM about the 1970 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

A friend of mine is looking to convert his 1970 KARMANN GHIA to a throttle body
versus a carburetor. Does anyone have any links to a company that sales kits for this?
Yes i do know all the variables to this, and he wants it to be non intrusive, so that it can
easily be returned to factory state.

Right now i have spent hours looking around for him but no matter the search engine i
use is all i get is pages of unrelated hits.

any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

I know someone that has a '72 or '73 Karmann Ghia. Some reason it won't go into reverse anymore and I don't think it grinds. Could this be a linkage issue and is there a particular linkage part that can cause this to happen? Would you also be able to tell me how to fix this if it's a linkage issue? 2 Answers

It's an early to mid '70s i'm pretty sure.
