It will fit, but if you go for a Weber, consider the side draft on an A
series engine.
The A series uses the 2 port intake and this seems to have a negative
effect with down draft carbs.
The 1500 on the other hand with it's 4 port intake sees a nice
performance increase with a down draft.
I tried a used down draft set up a long time ago and I didn't like it.
I also bought a brand new set up for my A40 and quickly took it off and
gave it away.
But like they say, YMMV
