Do you hace t cut the bulkhead to for a weber 40 dcoe

and would one work with a standers 998 engine

A weber DCOE 40, on a 998? Don't think it would suit it mate! But it depends what inlet you go for, swan neck or straight neck. a swan neck will allow you to install it without bulkhead adjustments.

Have seen a few small bores with weber 40's, but they're heavily modified. Most of the time overbored with lumpy cams. A swan neck manifold will allow fitment without cutting anything, as already stated.

Its a bit like you drinking from the fire hose..... far too much to drink and no where to put it all.....

Ok a carburettor is designed to supply enough fuel / air mixture for your engine, if th ecarburettor can supply enough for 150bhp and your engine will only ever get to 80bhp then fitting it will almost always be a waste..... much better to fit a carburretor that is better suited to your requirements.

So what is your engine spec ? bore size alone is not enough information to make a good assement..
