Weber Injection
Guy's Have a look at the engine photo of my 427 s/o, it has a set (4) x 48IDA webers, however after being in storage for 14 years the webers were not in great shape, so I decided to turn these into injection fed, it was an original Inglese system purchased in 1993.
It took about a week of work, removed the chokes, and away we went, out with the old in with the new, today very few people can pick this is a fuel injected set up. The webers with Race setup (42 chokes, etc) 335kw at the wheels, with a street set up (37 chokes, etc) 315KW at the wheels, injection setup 370kw at the wheels (1 KW = 1.346HP) that equals approx 640hp at the flywheel. Go injection, the best part, everthing is hidden, looks just like a weber setup. Love webers, but injection just makes sense. Better idle, better fuel economy, A/c cut out on full throttle, engine idle step up for A/C, ignition timing tuneability, multipule engine setups, etc, bla bla bla.
I would never of done this with a new weber setup, but for a system that was in need of major refurb, it made sense.
