Caveat: I'm a Spridget guy, not a B guy. BUT... the HIF carbs are
quite a step up from HS carbs. If it was me, I'd keep them and see
how they do on the car before considering different carbs. If you
plan to work the head, put in freeflow exhaust, hot cams, then also
invest in better air filters (K&N). Then, I'd get it dyno'd when it's
all done. All of that is probably money better spent than switching
to Webers.
All IMO, etc. (and assuming you've already rebuilt the carbs).
