Wow... I have no clue as to an educated answer, but I'd go with Holley just because of their reputation.

if that is the case, then why do we even bother modifying our cars?

I second the Weber...I got my 32/36 for $150 rebuilt off Ebay. An adaptor plate is like $50 and there are some other small nickel and dime items.

The downdraft Webers are easy to install, calibrate and tune. It will improve power, reliability and fuel economy.
