Say what???? I have no idea what you mean.
This should be moved into general advice.
I think he means carbs goes on top. To that end, my advice would be a general one like this since everything is combo dependent or in other words, how it is built and for what it is built for.
Total street = two 500 cfm carbs for a stock to very a mild engine.
Carter/Edelbrock carbs for this. Stock cam to a mild duration not more than 230* @ .050
Mild high performance = Two 600 carbs
Carter/Edelbrock or Holley carbs for this. Cam shaft not to large, under 248* duration @ .050.
Street/Strip, Very high performance/Race = Two Holley or race prep'd 750 carbs.
Bigger camshafts. 250* duration @ .050
From here, you'll need something more than just an average Holley carb and you should be looking at (IMO at least) race style carbs if not pro prep'd carbs for the big camshaft, increased compression ratio's, radical idle.

Hi Guys,
Apologies, i didnt even realize my mistake ( Yes i meant Carbies, not cargoes )... thanks for the advice Rumblefish...
Im looking at Total street at the moment, i want that bad *** look, already has the power.
Thanks, i will keep you posted on my decision...
I will try get this moved/posted to general advice...
Thanks again.

No worries George.

You're gonna need a set of deep gears for that tunnel ram to work right if it's a street car, too.

I tried a couple of 750 edelbrock performers on my 383-496 stroker.
They were a bit small for the cam I had, but it looked pretty good.

How about a six pack?

I found another pic
Some where around here I have a thread titled something like
Fooling around with dual quads where there a pair of 600AFB's on a old Edelbrock topping a 360. It's better to error on the small side with dual 4bbl.'s.
The smaller the carbs, the numerically lower the gear ratio can be.
If for example, you find that you can use a pair of Holley 390's, you could run with something as low as 3.23's.

Go to YouTube and enter in my screen name. You'll see a dual quad '73 Cuda.
It is a 360. Two Carter Comp 600's on a dual plane intake from Edelbrock.
Old school style!
