Weber, decreased driveability over stock, VERY easy to tune, parts are widely availiable
Dellorto, because!! Parts are becoming hard to find, but it's still cooler than the Weber, IMO!

holley: works well, it will be available forever
weber 45dcoe: i dont know a lot about this, webers are more tunable than a holley....
dellorto: its too small for a ported 13b, and its really hard to find
weber 48ida: its kinda like the holley kit without a choke, they are making 48ida's again

I have heard that the Holleys are not as good as the sidedrafts in a road racing situation, because of the way the floatbowl is set up. You know anything about this Ryan? (or anyone else)

If you are setting up the car for road racing go for an IDA or an IDF downdraft, (reproduction IDA are $930 for the carb. Gene Berg Enterprises) The side draft would be the compromise between the Holley and the IDA. Side draft is more ideal for autocross. The long intake manifold associated with side draft allows for more midrange power than with the IDA or the Holley.

Go with Holley.I like the fact that parts are available anywhere for the holley's and you don't sacrifice much driveability over stock like the weber does.My dellorto works awesome but try finding a Dellorto setup.They are hard to come by.If you were doing a 13b another choice for a carb would be a Mikuni 44 i hear they are really good too.
