thanks for all the replies, but I still don't know what I'm going to do. This is for a friends car which is a very nice, original 1977 roadster. I've used the downdraft weber and it's ok, love the twin SUs, but, like I said, it's for a friend who expects me to do all the labor, ergo, no twin SUs. I guess I'm looking for an alternative that will free up my precious time and will fix the problem. Again, thanks guys/gals, this is the best forum on the net, Bob
