Dear Julian and Corey,


                I have always been a fan of the Webers stack, but I have 
learned that it does come with a price.   Given the availability of an 
excellent Cleveland IDF intake manifold for IDF Webers, then........what
would the associated costs be for eight IDF carbs plus throttle linkage 
plus anything else pertinent to such a project??   $825 + shipping + 
carbs + special throttle linkage = about how much to have a stack of IDF
Webers atop the Cleveland?


                          Curious,  Chuck Engles
