Re: [T3] T3 - More questions

<x-flowed>=> my '68 was originally FI?

If it's a US-spec car, almost certainly.

=> Does that mean I may have some other alterations I need to run down?

The mods may be limited to the fuel system, and may not.

=> would it be reasonable (as in,are they better than stock?) to try and 
make
=> (the Weber carbs) work, or is there a better alternative?

Since the system is already installed, it won't cost you any more than 
time and hassle, really, to try to get them working better. But they'll 
never be better than the stock PDSITs, and I rather doubt they'll ever 
do as well as stock, given an otherwise stock engine configuration. 
Putting bigger carbs on an engine that can't breathe any faster is 
pointless.
