Carbs and catalyst on a modern engine?
Anyone have any anecdotal info on whether a modern engine such as a Duratec 2.0 could be made the pass the emissions test with carburtettors and a
catalyst?

It does seem to crop up in related topics, but apart from me wanting to get some opinions about it, a thread with the title given will make future
searches easier

Presumably that's just CO? It's a bit tougher for modern engines, the engine in question would have to be under 0.2 HC and 0.15 NOx, which
is why I asked about the catalyst

I'd say no on the basis rover couldn't get the a series mini through and had a special exemption to allow them to sort out FI on the
thing.
(although this may be complicated by the 5 port head).
