I think you need a special weber carbi due to the fuel; bowl vent. from memory you have to presurise thie whole carbi other wise the air correction jets will blow petrol out of them under boost.
but could be a nice alternative, why not sway the weber for a injection perfection weber based throttle body... and they come in different colors....

Yeah a 34 ADM or 32/36, or holley 350 if you can get it on a manifold, would be fine,

the webers are better as they allow better tuning...

I'll send you an email about the sie draft if I can fine a decent pic...

cheers
