The beauty of the Webers is that you can tune them to do just about any
thing you want. You can tune them for torque or top end power or both.
It just takes a lot of time to learn the theory of operation to tune
them. Of course there is always the guys in the list that can help. I
wouldn't even think of building a performance engine without the Webers
unless it's a fully programmable fuel injection system.

I've always had a questions about how much webers help. Do they do a
better
job of metering fuel across the range of rpm and load, there for
providing a
fatter power band? How does this compare to Richard Goodes three ZS set
up?

Remember a Fed. Spec TR6 is roughly 100 HP in stock form. Make it
breathe
better and get rid of the fan and you're in the 120 HP range easily. The
header is probably the most important part of that equation. Throw on
Webers and a header and tuned exhaust and you can get that number into
the
130 HP range.
