I do agree with you that Zeniths and Solexes are absolute piles of dung. Webers were and are a clear improvement over them.

I chose to build my Spyder MY way, it has many oddities and peculiarities that other people don't like.

I simply don't care.

It is painted white(not silver), I guess I should be shot! It has Webers and a type 1, and crankfire ignition, along with a cable shifter and disc brakes all around. It's a replica, built my way to my vision and other than the general shape and appearance there isn't much in common with the original. And it will spank the doors off a lot of cars but especially the one it replicates. Kind of like your IM-6 Speedster, eh? 

YOU know your stuff...thats for sure and will certainly blow the doors off of many, including mine despite the six. Smart doing discs all around as important to be able to stop that rocket. Mine is fairly quick AND I would NOT own an original....slow as sh*t and will rust if you spit on it.....but I'm happy with mine despite that small/infinitesmal rascally flat spot
