Downdraft GT weber or single 45DCOE sidedraft?

1600 cross flow engine. Which offers better power? standard GT weber & manifold or a lynx sidedraft manifold with single 45 weber?
Any pros and cons regarding each set up?

    the side draught depending on manifold will need a slight cut taking out the the brake booster arm nothing serous, but the sounds will be worth it allso power is slighty more smooth, depends what's done to the motor, if you use a 32/26 on a gt manifold with a warm cam, you will get a lumpy idle due to the different size chokes, unlike the dcoe, but when it comes to fitting the gt manifold is straight bolt up, i would go the sidedraft me self :)

    Thanks diggin. Yeah, I went with a sidedraft. It has a lynx manifold specially designed to clear the booster. And a crossover feature I just read about here

    I can't wait to hear how it sounds through some pacemaker headers [:u]
