I'm sure this topic has been addressed here, but I'm having trouble finding it. In my quest for a car, I just talked to a guy who has a car for me (72 set up for autoX). He's just installed a rebuilt high performace 2.0L engine, and he is giving me the option of original rebuilt Webers or Dellortos.
My understanding is that the Webers may deliver more power at the top end and be easeyer to tune and find parts for, but the Dellortos are better made and deliver a wider power band (better for street use) but are harder to tune and find parts for.
the guy previously had the Webers on it and said it ran beautifly, but was planing on putting the Dellortos on for better low end.

Anyoune out there have an informed opinion? As someone planning on just driving around (I may give AutoX a try), should I walk away from a seemingly great deal and find a fuel injected ride?

Dellorto is better, but carbs suck.
