Sadly, unless there's a good reason for using carbs., such as the need to comply with competition regulations or similar, these devices are best confined to a museum, along with things like Kettering ignition systems.
A well set up single carb. only gives correct fuelling at a couple of places in the rev. band under any particular load conditions at best, so the chances of getting three carbs. to give correct fuelling at any revs., under any load conditions for any length of time is minimal.
Throttle bodies with injectors controlled by electronics is the way to go.

1. 45s are too big.
2. There is not enough room in a stock e30 to get proper inlet length and a cold air feed
3. As Brian says, fuelling is generally only correct at one point transient and WOT.
4. Ignition becomes a pig
5. No closed loop control
6. No closed throttle fuel shut off

I can go on but it really is just a step backwards.
