Hey, Rick,
Thanks for a serious post with INFO in it. To be clear, I'm not looking to do this as I'm a solid FE guy.
I have much experience with Windsors and Clevors and am well aware of the power available. Had my hands on Elliot and Kuntz heads which were works of art flowing 400 numbers at .650-.700. Yes, they want straight port TALL intakes. I just realized one day that you never see one with a Weber set and wondered if the owners or builders could explain why not. At least I guessed right about 1100 CFM for, as you say for worked Webers.
You raise good points about the type of such motors like qualifers (which I don't think would live long on the street-hollow cams and God know what else) and Busch etc.
I guess it all comes down to piston selection, a solid roller around .700 and driveability-all of which don't seem suited to Webers.
I think one in a GT 40 would be B***hin' though.
You and Vector have to find better 'cupholders'.
