Bang for the buck? A 4 barrell.

I started with a 4BBL and went to webers (for about $3500.) and never looked back. They run great and look great. See my photos for a "before and after" for ERA 2039.

Pat is correct. If bang for the buck is what you are after,then the Holley is the way to go. For 3500 bucks you could have a killer set of ported aluminum heads and a stroker kit for your engine;there would be no comparison in performance for the buck. However, the look of the webers cannot be duplicated and I do love it. So it really is not a performance question,it is a cosmetic question.
