I have considered dual Webers or Mikunis but don't want to deal with
the driveability issues of syncing 2 carbs, not to mention the added
fuel consumption.  I go back to Drake theory on that issue.  For all
that money, it doesn't buy you a lot of additional HP. I'm leaning
toward a single 38/38 non-progressive Weber and a new air intake setup
as soon as the smog nazis are off my back.
