you might try giving thunderheart a call to see if their twin cam stand alone system can be used on your sportster, it is triggered by the crank sensor.

You may also need a different manifold to mate a carb to the EFI heads. The EFI heads are machined slightly different than the older carb heads.

Hammer Performance makes a billet manifold for a carb on EFI heads.
These manifolds are available either with or without the provision for the MAP sensor as used on 04-06 models.

Maybe a fuel tank from a 2006 or earlier also so you have the petcock for a carb fuel line.
