Default Your camshaft is not ideal for webbers

SHTMDWN PA The motor is fine for cubic size. The 48mm will run out of air at about 6,500-6,700 rpms. The camshaft doesn't have enought seperation with running webbers You want a min of 112 LSA. The camshafts webber sell are all in the114-115 lsa numbers. Webbers are sensitive to vacuum more than your Holley because the vacuum signal for the holley comes from all the cylinders. Webbers signal comes only mostly from than cylinder. There are small balance tubes to help with idle. When setup right you will get a wider power range with a 20-30 HP pickup. I 15-20ft. pound of torque also. The cool look is great. The other problem is running screens or filters on them to keep out road debries. If you want to talk more on this, send me a p-m here I'm in NJ we can talk in the evening. Rick L.
