What exactly do you mean by 'flow through'? Never heard that term used with carbs before. Did you mean blow through?

Yea that. I wana know if I went with some kind of forced induction if I could stick with those carbs or if I would have to go fuel injected.

Hmmm, I wouldn't know the answer to that. I know that normally blow through carbs are different than draw through carbs in a couple areas, usually the metering circuits and the floats.
