You will be pleased with the way it drives at low speed; it’s very smooth and has good manners in traffic. You will also like the performance when you floor it. I am very happy with the carburetion; the engine feels super.

I can almost taste it!
That's a pretty good endorsement from Jim Inglese, Jeff. And from my limited experience with Webers on Alfas, when they're jetted and tuned correctly, they stay in tune easily, are smooth, powerful and reasonably economical (considering it's breathing through eight throats all the time!)
Cheers,
Glen
