Ya a guy could convert---but the whole object of owning an old car is to have an "old car". I like my three single barrel carbs and will use them till they make me switch. Yes it is a bigger issue but they are crushing cars in the yards now for the cost of scrap is way up. The east and west coast are getting rid of the old car yards and the rest of the country is losing yards right and left.Soon there won`t be any left. I do think our old cars are polluters to them and they have no time for the old car hobby. We are a small percentage of the cars on the road , so it`s no big deal. Oh well!!
