If the carbs are run as IR [ independent/ isolate runner ] they are AWESOME.
Prior to EFI, you look at the Maserati, Ferrari, Porsche etc that ran multiple Weber or Dellorto carbs, with one throat per per cyl & they made prodigious amounts of power. The Ford/Weslake headed 289 of the late 60s made big HP with four Weber IDA carbs.
I ran four Weber 48 IDFs on my 440 Dart in the late 80s.
My 455 GTO which I still have, has had IDFs on it for 16 yrs. Throttle response is like EFI. I cannot use 1st gear because the car is uncontrollable.
