I am afraid I did not consider the webers when I built the engine. I figure at this point it is what it is. The engine was built as a low rpm torquer engine. My goal was very good tq limiting rpm to 5500rm. By doing so I figured I can get by with much less valve spring problems. We dynoed it with a Deamon on a CHI intake right at 500hp with 534lbs tq. The engine had 434lbs of tq at 2000rpm and the dyno could not start any lower with he tq. I can also tell you the exhaust primaries on the dyno were pretty small.

If I ever get caught up I have another 400 I want to go hog wild on. We have a draq strip a couple miles from my house. I have an old nascar I want to use as a rolling dyno and would like to play use that to set up another motor. We'll see if it happens. Life is pretty damn busy right now.
