yes as one is carbs and the other are tbs
carbs do not use fuel injection, while tbs rely on a mapped ecu and fuel injection to work for one
if there carbs (which im doubting) there be to small anyway i would have though, and it would be easier to twin webers on, also if there carbs they would requires a distributor cap and rotor arm as a maual way of getting a spark, which there is no place to put one on a c16

x16 is the same case anyway, as they have a dis pack as oppose to a distributor and rotor arm etc
