Re: carb size

i have a 355 with high compression heads on it and i have an edelbrock 500 on it and its great. i get decent milage and it still takes off when i have my foot in it. your 600 should be fine for what your running. besides probably 80% of people are running over-carbed motors. bigger is not always better. a 750 wouldnt hurt but i thing your 600 is just fine
