Kristen,
Shelby and others used the Webber set ups for racing as they made more power. And they were hard to keep in tune, so you never saw many on street cars back then. And they gulped fuel asif they were trying to drain the whole supply. But they were the ultimate in carbs for power.
Mike,
Loved your explanation of why two carbs. They make bigger explosions. Why didn't you also tell her they blew the parts of the engine farther??
I had a 427 Tunnel Port once with two fours and was parked in a small park and some man and woman from Washington pulled in while I had the hood up. The woman walked over and asked me why I had two carburetors and I told her to double my gas mileage. About 5 minutes later here came the man really agitated. She had gone back and told him that they had to have two put on their car. Boy, some people will believe anything.
