I would direct anyone with Weber issues to contact Mike Pierce at Pierce Manifolds in Salinas CA.

He is the absolute, world wide, go to guy for Webers.

I never could get them to run lean enough on the street around town.  Ran great on the highway however since the 4:11 rear end kept the engine at high RPM.  If you know someone who is an EXPERT with Weber's I would have them take a look.  With the thousands of combinations of different jets, venturi's etc. on DCOE's it really takes some time and knowledge to get them streetable.
