2 Weber DCOE 40 (I have these on mine) give you the maximum performance on a
modified spit engine. This system offers the maximum flow (hence best at high
revs) with greates flexibility. (only trouble is you need a rolling road to set
them up!)
1 Weber DCOE 45 (Which Laura has) is simpler, and may give better torque low
down, but becomes restrictive at high revs.
