Default Cup motor thoughts

Just speculating here and wondering about the possibilities of a cup-style motor with Webers.
358 inch Elliot, Yates or Roush detuned to 11:1, somewhere around 700HP.
Admittedly, I don't know much about cams for these and I think the carbs are between 900 and 1100CFM.
I do know that Webers don't want a lot of overlap and duration. I'm speculating that 48IDA's are around 1000CFM. I may be full of soup so experts, please correct me.
Open to any discussion on this subject. I'm sure you don't see this type of combo because it doesn't work.
But boy the prospect is tantalizing.
