Weber Vs Dellorto?, Good, Bad or Ugly Options

[Levi]

I'm trying to decide which carbs to use on my 74 2.0L.
It now has duel Dellorto DRLA36's and my 73 1.7 parts car has duel Weber 40 IDF-19's
Does anyone have experience with these carbs?
which ones would give me the best drivability, performance,and fuel economy

Will the weber's bolt to the 2.0L Dellorto intake runners??

It's getting harder and harder to find parts for the Dells. Even Brad was complaining about it recently. Weber parts are still produced, and you're much more likely to find a rebuild kit in 10 years for them. btw, the IDF-19s are the "old" IDFs, so get the "old" rebuild kit. I have a pair of these, as well.

IDAs, so I'm told, aren't very good street carbs. A 48 on a street Type IV would be hard to tune and produce pretty poor drivability. You spend 90% of your time on the idle circuits on the street, so you're spending 90% of your time with the throttles mostly closed, anyway.
