***********************************
In a nutshell - the sidedraft is primarily a no compromise performance carb.
designed for inline engines that are modified to use it, while the downdraft
is a more civilized, more forgiving carb designed to be used on your every
day family type car. That's not to say you can't get any performance from
the down draft - but for most non modified or slightly modified cars the
down draft is probably the better choice for drivability.
