One thing is for sure, the Webers would be the absolute LAST expenditure I would make in the process of gathering the goodies. As a matter of fact, I would build out the car (390 or 428) with a cheap Sidewinder or PI manifold and a Holley 3310 on top and go drive it for 1000 miles. THEN, if I still had the Weber Woody I would maybe do it. But things look a whole lot different after 12 months of building one of these than they look when you're just surfing Club Cobra with a Hurricane brochure in one hand a Coors Light in the other.
