Benefits of switching to carburetors?

First of all, please forgive me if this has been covered. I did do a search, but nothing came up. Feel free to point me to threads if need be.

I have a 3.0 SC engine which I purchased around 4-5 years ago from a member I found on these forums. The engine is still running great, no qualms or anything, however; I was curious to see what benefits I would gain (if any) by switching to carburetors (weber? PMO?.... sorry not an engine guy).

Why I ask? Because I wouldn't have to open her up if I'm not mistaken.

Sound? performance gains if any?

Cons if any? reliability?

Cost?

Background info...
My engine was rebuilt before I purchased it 4-5 years ago. At the time, the owner provided that it was rebuilt 8-10k miles before my purchase. The pistons, crank, rods all new forged, performance cams, new race studs, three angle valve job, Head work and balance work by Ross motorsports, carerra tensioners, comp clutch, pop off valve, lightweight flywheel, SSI headers-heaterboxes all new gaskets seals etc...

I added a M&K 2 in 1 out, but nothing besides that.

Thanks in advance.
