I have a '65 Coupe, 289 with a stock two barrel. I have been having problems with this old carb and was looking to get a replacement but am now thinking about upgrading to a 4 barrel and a new intake manifold. Its an everyday car for me so I dont want anything too crazy but of course I would always enjoy some more power. Any suggestions for carbs and intakes that will look clean and "stock" and not empty my pockets? I'm not real sure about the whole 600cfm, 750cfm, etc., or if I can easily upgrade to an automatic choke. Any suggestions for places to look or talk to would be greatly appreciated also.
Thanks
