Lightbulb what carb will fit a racing beat side draft intake?

Ok I want a side draft system for my 84' 12A I can get the racing beat intake manifold easy but a weber is kinda expensive is there any other carbs that will fit the racing beat side draft intake manifold and how good is it on performance.


Thanks Jeremy

Go for a weber setup. it's more money, but it's worth it

I have a racing beat intake manifold with a dellorto carb and it gave me about a 50% increase in power. But it will be difficult for you to find a dellorto, especially when it come to some discontinued parts so i would go with the weber set up.
