Well Paul; the Webers ain't cheap.  I am working to put a new set of 44s on the 
baja.  Think it will give me maybe 10-15 more horsepower, up into the range of 
150 total.  Worked for an entire week polishing all of the intakes and linkage 
and getting some parts chromed.  Ready to go on now when we get back from 
Galveston.  Maybe have them on sometime next week.

        Paul:  One disadvantage of the Dellortos is that they are no longer 
produced and some parts for them are difficult to find.  But, they are good 
carbs, my opinion better than the Kadrons for power.  Think you would notice a 
power boost with them.  That said:  If I were selecting a new set of carbs for 
your engine I would buy Weber 40s; but, they are expensive; new set with 
linkage is over $700.

          Kadrons are all Murray has ever had, and I hear stories of people 
working on their complicated carbs aside from changing a jet and moving a 
little squirty tube I have never had to do anything to them. How can I own 
Dellortos or Webers when I describe something as a little squirty tube? Simple 
is better for me.

          I like my Dellortos but I think for most people Kadrons are a better 
choice.  I say keep the Kadrons.
