The B2 Convertor everyone on here chats about is the GRA GasReseach ones. Correct me if im wrong but they are a copy of an IMPCO L.

Depends what set-up you are planning to use. If using a GRA T/B you will need a GRA B2 convertor. The B2 convertors from "gas research" run a different spring set up specifically for their throttlebodies. If you try to use any other brand convertor including a standard B2 with their throttlebodies you will get idle issues & stalling. If using an Impco gas carb or some sort of mixer ring than a standard B2 will suffice, or any other convertor for that matter (Impco, elko or century etc)

For GRA TB's the converter needs to run lighter springs and be mounted horizontally to prevent mixtures from wandering. You can change the spring over in the converter without too much hassle. If you can get hold of them, metal lids are a better bet in a boosted application....the plastic lids tend to flex a tad once over 15PSI.....
