A supercharged and injected engine sounds nice. I wonder if the Sonett gearbox could cope with the torque. I keep hearing that it's not overly strong, and the V4 is incredibly torquey, a supercharger would probably make things quite lively. Personally, I like injection because it is generally unfussy. However a 20 year old L-jetronic like my Lancia has needs work to operate like a new one, so keep that in mind if going to the boneyards to pirate an injection system. Also, the L-jet ECUs were designed specifically to work with each engine they were fitted to, so if you can find fitted to an engine similar to what you are building (ie, similar airflow, similar fuel delivery at certain rpms, etc.) you might be in luck. I'm unfamiliar with the CIS systems other than they are not electronically operated, perhaps they are easier to retrofit.
