Alot of work. I've heard that the Edelbrock and M/T FE cross rams are not that great for making power because of this, although they look impressive.
there are 'ways' of dealing with fuel distribution problems in old style manifolds, some available way back when, some which are only now available to the common man, which is why he may want to get a new top plate made and get hold of a 'bad man' inline carb...
