That auto transmission option on the V6 is as rare as hens teeth BTW
Actually, that carb isn't too far off if you use the calculator:

If you do the math for a stock application, you get 366 CFM required. If you choose modified, you get 448 CFM required. These calculations are with 3600 RPM redline (V6) and volumetric efficiency of 1.
