You're right. Beauty is always in the eye of the beholder. The first time I saw the Momar system, I was in love. I love the modern space-age look. It fits well with the rest of my car, which is definatly not a copy of the original.




Of course, you can have your cake and eat it too. This system is from Dynatek Racing.

Fuel economy?
Get a Diesel!
I get around 6 mpg with my 48IDA carbureted 427 S/O.
I must say that I am all the time going blam,blam on the gas pedal and the accelerator pumps and the brakes hardly get a rest.
Cruising will probably bring that figure down, but as much as I set out to behave and do steady driving, I end up driving like roller coaster.
A 427 with Webers is addictive.
Fuel injection does not have the immediacy of the carb.

Rick,
It is my understanding that the Berg 58mm (and not the ultra rare Weber 58mm) are a direct bolt-on to any 48mm manifold without modification. This is from the geneberg.com website:

"These are a Berg casting that we machine to 58mm. The industry standard 48IDA bolt pattern and dimensions are maintained so they fit all 48IDA manifolds without modification or adapters including V8 applications"

By the way, they now make the carb up to 61mm.

Webers are the best!
