Thanks for the advice. Yes, the Dellortos are downdraft. So too, is the Weber but it would fit on the Canon 2845 manifold I am looking at. What I was thinking (with my limited experience) was possibly replacing the single Stromberg with a single twin choke Weber 32. I have a carb lying about and I may get the manifold. Is it worth it? I keep reading on here and elsewhere the trouble people have with tuning twin carb set ups, so maybe a change to a single Weber may be a good thing? TBH I am not too pushed but if I picked it up for good money it might be worth a try. And of course if it didnt work I could always put the Stromberg back on. So, change to the Weber? Or would I see any noticable difference compared to the Stromberg?
