Twin SU HIF 6's or Weber DGV? 140-160

I am sick and tired of trying to coax my Weber to run the engine correctly on my '71 144s automatic. it is resting on a TWM intake (no clue as to origin), and half of the original-type cast manifold (exhaust side). i have had this setup on two cars, and on each one there would be a slight bog-down when you stepped on the gas, it tends to be deeper and longer when the car is cold. but, yes, i am tired of constantly fiddling with the infernal thing and never having it work right. I have a grungy old pair of SU HIF 6's lying around, and despite my bad luck in the past, i want to try to set the pair up with all the original hoses actually hooked up correctly and see how that works. Question: is this better, or should i stay with the Weber? ( --
