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.

your not so far off...in 2006 i had the pleasure of joining a track day at lebanon valley dragway. the long island cobra club rented the track. there was a gentleman (andrew) thats all i remember, he had a retired winston cup motor with a single 4 on it mild cam. he smoked all the big blocks including me with low 10's passes. i had the great pleasure of beating him finally during the day, but only because he sprayed his clutch all over the track. it was very consistant and the stick shift let him hook up.
the webers well.....lets just say it would look good, but i think the single 4 is the way to go.
