I have seen some tests where Webers actually did not perform much better than a regular carb, even with peak HP...they were probably not tuned right.

On a race car, at WOT conditions, I would think that Webers would out perform a standard 4 barrel. But, unless you are racing, I would steer clear.

But, the Webers have a parking lot cool that is unrivaled.

Take this from a guy that has torn off perfectly good Bosch systems to put on Webers cause they are cool.

I have a VeryCoolParts EFI with an Electromotive TechGT....runs great, starts every time, idles nicely even while cold, super responsive....too many pluses to be "tuning all the time" and the looks are great. Look at my gallery, for some reason, I cannot post a pic.

Wayne Presley has a manifold for a stack EFI on a 460.

Wouldn't 48s be too small for a 460?

Dynatek Racing makes a FI system that looks almost exactly like Weber carbs. They also flow a lot better than the carbs.
