You *will* get all kinds of opinions on carb selection. Everyone has their favorite.

I like Holleys. They just look right, and they work fine. They're pretty simple, but I guess the others are okay too if you know how to work 'em.

You'll probably get better results with the vac secondary, but the double pumper is more fun. There's something about being able to stomp on it and hear the "vooooom".

600cfm is probably enough, but I'd go with something more like 700-750cfm. If I could choose any carb, I'd pick the 735 CJ carb (dual line, vac secondary, annular discharge boosters). Scratch that, I'd choose the Holley Pro? Series. You know, the ones w/out the choke housing. Hell, I can't even settle on one opinion.
This thread, so far...
