Spent hours on the internet researching and I’m still no closer to a decision.
New 454 crate motor with headers.
Currently running an Edelbrock AVS2 650cfm that was on my old motor,wondering if I should go bigger.
I’m going to stick with Edelbrock because I have a ton of rods, jests, springs for tuning but mostly because I have a performer RPM fuel pump and would have to replace it to run a Holley.
Choices I’m looking at: Performer 750 cfm and AVS2 800cfm , mainly considering the 800 because I like the AVS2 and that model doesn’t come in 750.
What’s your thoughts, do I need a bigger carb?
