I got rid of a autolite carb on my 428 and went to a 650 edelbrock with electric choke. When I was looking at carbs someone asked me if I was going for speed or just plain driveability. If you are looking for a good soild carb that wont suck gas too bad then go with a 650, its a good balance between power and milage. If you are looking to do mods on your engine down the road and mileage isnt that big of a deal to you then go bigger. The 650 I got was around 200.00 and worth every penny.
