Most folks that hate em do so for one or more of the following reasons:

1) they stink
2) gas milage goes down the tubes
3) often hard to start
3a) they can't get em to work right
4) they *think* they have to dick with em' constantly

Most folks like them do so for the following:

1) they make power
2) they make more power with the bumpstick of your choice
3) the sound
4) the throttle response
5) the alternative EFI(if you wanna make power) cost more than twice as much
as a new set of PMOs....at any cost indeed. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Mr. Anderson's book (amongst others) has the formula for figuring venturi size for an engine. From venturi size you work backwards to carb size.
