Randy:

There is an old saw: "Open up a carburetion shop and triple your ignition business". If their ever was an application for this, it is with the Webers. These carbs are much simpler than even the old Carter and Rochester two barrels of the 50s and 60s. Many people blame their problems on carburetion when it is ultimately something else--usually ignition.

Terry K. is correct. The ability to change out major components takes no time at all. Educate yourself with some books before you decide, but the torque difference is unreal in a SB Ford and they have real eye appeal. Once dialed in, there is really not much to do. Search CC, as there is some good info on them. This discussion has been going on for a long time.

Email me if you would like some suggestions on periodicals.
