You need to rebuild the 1835?
Not too sure what you mean by a Weber 43. - this is a single carb right?
Webers come in IDF 36,40,44,48's in singles and duals and DFEV 32/36 Progressive singles.
Yeah there are 1000's of others IDA, DCNF, DCN but those 2 are the most common.
There are twin single barrels (Kadrons, Weber ICT's and Dellorto FRD's) and there are twin 2 barrels (Weber IDF, IDA and Dellorto DRLA)
IF and that word is very important, they are tuned right you will get a decent performance, economy and drivability increase.
How much - that is hard to say. Changing to twin 2 barrels is a step past noticeable.
I went 1600, 1600 & progressive, 1776 & progressive, 1776 & IDF36's and every step you got out of the car and went - OK that made a difference.
Admittedly all the steps were not smooth transactions.
