I would say Search harder but the search functions isn't very good. I don't understand why it rejects results if there are too many.

Anyway yes twin 45 sidedraught webbers seems to be a common upgrade, manifolds available somewhere apparently.

Fuel mapping should not be a 'problem', injection is all analogue and closed loop, mixture screw. Should be enough range in the injectors to cope with small upgrades. Cam definitely worth doing, types from other engine good, VX is desired item, but I think there are plenty of fast road/race cams available.

Megasquirt is the standard fuel management replacement for bigger mods

Best upgrade for a 360 is B230FT turbo of course, with which you can use megasquirt or the standard LH2.4 system from the 940.
