Just adding to the chorus of snorts here.

Sure those carbs will work! I used tri-power with a bigger cam, and folks use FE 3x2s and 2x4s with larger engines and cams. The 600s MAY need some jet changes to tune them in. They MAY need to have the idle mixture adjusted. They MAY need to have the secondary springs adjusted for best performance. They MAY ned to have the pump lever adjusted. This is all regular, normal stuff. They will provide more CFM than you need, so they are certainly not too small. They will not load up the engine, and they will be reliable and fairly efficient in cruise mode. They will work as cool as they look.

Do give us the list numbers, found on the choke horn. Give us the general area you are in, in case someone nearby might be able to help you out on the phone or something (if you are in SoCal, I wouldn't mind). Are you using the factory style linkage?

Those carbs are just what you need. They may need to be rebuilt, and then tuned, but they are just what you need. The 660s can be sold on Ebay, if you choose to do so.
This thread, so far...
