Personally, I like the look of 4 Webers over the single Holley.

Again, iirc, it has been 25 years, the 289s seemed to have the Webers and the 427s would have either. But either could be an aftermarket mod. Do you know what was stock?

Although I did work on a factory race version with fuel injection. Never drove it but the owner gave me a ride. Stupid fast. I think he claimed 800 hp and a 0-100-0 in 9.6. Don't know if any of that was true but I wasn't shaking because it was a cold day in a convertible.

Except for the induction tub (interesting as it is something that most GT40s also had) and the Cobra head covers, and a few other tasty looking aluminum items in the engine bay, it could be just another American muscle car
