Correctly running fuel injection will run the best. Dual webbers sound cool but can be a challenge to tune correctly. 40mm should be the largest you should consider. For the same cost you can fix your fuel injection and have a better running engine. Stay away from the single webber conversions. They are cheap but very hard to tune out the dreaded flat spot.
