Gary: I installed it about a year ago, and am very happy with it. A very 
noticeable improvement in power on the first test ride, even before the 
linkage was completely sorted out. Now it really pulls so much harder than 
the 2-carb setup. Speaking of linkage, if you do decide to do the 
installation, definitely consider converting to the Ratco linkage (at least, 
for the ZS carbs). It was almost impossible to get full throttle with the 
original monkey-motion linkage no matter how I lengthened, adjusted, changed 
angles, etc.
 I think you'll like it.
I should add that our TR also has an Isky street cam, headers and mild 
compression boost (from '76 low comp.). Before the conversion, the power 
tailed off rapidly after ~4500rpm. Now I can run it up to redline if I want.
