Questions re: Weber 44 IDF carbs:

1. Is anyone running these on a stock engine, and if so, how do they perform? National Carburetors kit for stock engines is 34 ICT's, lightly modified 40 IDF's, and only 44's on heavily modified engines.

2. What problems do you introduce using 44's? other than dumping too much fuel in the engine......

3. Venturi's are 45mm, someone pointed out that one should use 40mm venturi's - is that with a stock engine?

4. Anyone run 44's and then convert back to EFI? How did that go? Labor cost?

TIA,

GN
