I thought that Weber was German, but a quick search seems to imply that it is now American (Redline Weber)
Maybe someone will know?
My only point was - so wot if Holley is Yank - if its betta than the NOS Rover product? Dont forget that the Rover V8 is based on a Buick 215 Yank lump!

its italian and last i heard it was owned by magnetti-marelli or however they chose to spell it. of course as we all know 'the weber' is the SI unit of magnetic flux.

Magnetti-Marelli still own the tradename of Weber, however rumour has it that they, like lots of carburettor manufacturers, have almost stopped production since the introduction of Electronic fuel management systems.
it still aint British, but I have to admit - I too have a soft-spot for Webers.

it got the 2.25 lump and if we ignored all engines with any hint of yanky input we'd be running about with covertry climax engine in all our cars. its only got a small link to the yank thing ..they both have 8 cylinders and if my memory serve well the yank one was all cast iron.
