Re: Holley Carb help?
Most will tell you a 600-650 will be just fine and I would agree with that.

Re: Holley Carb help?
And now the headaches start..... LOL
Good choice, but not the one I would have made. BUT, either way, plan on LOTS of tuning to get that sucker dialed in. I'm not a big fan of "chokes", but I don't leave the garage until I'm up past 140* either. That's a good carb, and it'll treat you well. If you "listen" to it. It'll tell you what it wants.
