ps: trying to get some info on a quad weber set up.... have
contacted all the Weber suppliers here and in the US, would
probably be easier to carve a manifold out of stone

Probably two things ...... one would be the look, there is only
one Quad weber set up I have seen in 16 years for a V8 , that was
used on Tileys race cuda and then on their street cuda. Would
be good to be different, plenty of 4 barrels and even six pack V8
set ups these days.....

Secondly..... sure a 4 barrel will give you the most top end horsepower,
but it would be fun to have the instant response of the Webers....
besides, the snarl of 3 webers sounds great, can you imagine 4.....

It would also be good to build the Charger Supercar that Chrysler
should have built.....

that looks and sounds good to me , have you thought of maybe going the way they did with the old Torries with the twin Webber's? except find a 2x4 barrel manifold? or just go the 2x4 barrel way

Yeah I have seen Brockies A9X in the Bathurst musuem with
the twin weber set up, but it would be similiar to running the
DP Holley I have got on it already, just a better sound,
and I suspect it wouldn't get the torque of the quad setup.

Besides the look, I like the idea of one throat per cylinder and
possibly an equal fuel to cylinder ratio for all 8 cylinders. Closest
thing to direct port fuel injection but without the complications...

Yeah that sounds good.i have yet to see a quad set up on a valiant V8.
It almost seems like a ancient attemp at M.P.F injection.Im sure it would sound and look good,but are you really that good at tuning the carbs and idea.Why not aftermarket injection , or a magnum v8 conversion.They run the same block,just different top end.Cheap and eco.Well in saying that i are not the one to speak as i have spent to much money on bling rather than go .Good luck
