You'll need a new inlet manifold and Either a hole cut in your bonnet or a bulkhead box needs to be welded in depending on what type of manifold you choose, And a rolling road session is a MUST.
I notice you're running a 1330 at the moment.... The weber could be quite at home on that engine If It's gotta nice cam In there too... If anything it'll sound great!

Quoting a ball park BHP figure is useless and i can't do it,... It's all about torque on Normal 8v Mini engines without fancy 16v heads etc.
Oh and you'll need some special rubber spacers that stop the engine vibrations frothing up the fuel in the carb.... I think.
I'm gonna sit back now and let someone more knoweldegable take over.

Yes the jets will need changing,.. Performance wise... If it's well set-up you should see quite a difference in the delivery of power I.E. throttle response and small amount of torque increase. Sheer noise coming from the engine bay will be enough to make you look and sound faster too

I have a manifold and sidedraught weber I bought to clean up and sell on... I may be persuaded to split them if it's suitable for you but I will warn you I saw a manifold go on ebay for over £60 recently..... pm me if wanting details

The common Webers to use on minis are the DCOE webers, though some people do use IDAs and DTMR/DTMLs (I think).
Manifold for a DCOE will be easy to find, DTML and IDA manifolds will be more difficult. If it's off something like a Nova SR or similar, it'll probably be a DTMR/DTML I think, something like a 32/34?

Woody never said it was off a Vauxhall! He said he doesn't need it now because he's going Vauxhall powered.If it came off a Vauxhall, is it a downdraught?

I guess technically, I could be blamed for your misinterpretation. Perhaps (in hindsight) I should have quoted the post that I was responding to.
