if you have a small cam, a decent base and ported runners and plenum i would imagine that you wouldn't really see a gain worth writing home about going carb.. maybe a gain in your average gas bill. and a large loss in your wallet with a sad look on your face.

ok so my first post was a bit of joking around. but seriously i doubt that you wil see any real gains switching manifolds and you would probably have a heartattack seeing the prices of your options. maybe some runners tops but you haven't really given any details of the cam nor do you know what size your heads are. if you have 210's then a miniram would probably be in order if you really are going to stay fuel injected which many would suggest. if you have the older 190's maybe a superram plenum and runners would do the trick.
