I think you really need to get the Berg 58mm webers if you want to make power above 5000 rpms. So, if you want webers sell the 48's, get the berg 58's and a BT weber intake, like the one I have which is canted.

The intake on the left is the BT 48 IDA intake. The intake on the right is a HM 58mm Downdraft intake.
