Sidedraft= more torque and easier street driving.
Downdraft(shorter style)= sheer madness of power at top end.
HAHAAHHA
I used a downdraft before and as fun as they are I don't find them realistic for street driving, I am much happier with my sidedraft on my 12a Streetport for daily driving.
Right now im using a Dellorto 48 mm with racing beat manifold.
The weber is also a very good and popular carb.
The weber is available as a sidedraft or as a downdraft.
Waht kind of car and motor are you thinking of swapping carbs on????????

TWM manifolds also made that style.
Is that the right name??? TWM?? Or is it TCW or something???
Anyway, there was one for sale on ebay about a month ago.
It was for a 12a and the manifold was for 2 thats right 2 weberside draft carbs.
So you would've had a total of 4 throttle bodies on the 12a.
Looked pretty insane.
It was going for $50 when the guy cancelled the auction.
total bummer.
