    it would take less time to put a better carb but you could have equal or better performance but a lot worse fuel economy, up to you. i was going to go for the 38/38 dges, simple carb with a nice size power/economy combo.

    I'm not sure about others but my fuel economy pretty much stayed the same.

    Dual webers are faster then the lxi.
    The 32/36 should be about the same... it really depends how you tune the carb.
