"I do have the Edelbrock RPM performer intake on the car"

My mistake...It's an Edelbrock Performer 390. I understand there is a big difference.

I'm getting the feeling I can make more power with this engine by throwing a bucket load of money at it. New heads, intake, cam, pipes, etc. I get it and might prefer to buy an engine already set up if I am spending thousands. It's not a good time for that and the wife wouldn't be smiling if I did.

The fact is the tuner was having a hard time leaning out the car as is. When the air filter went back on it killed all of his efforts. Would the 650 no choke horn carb put me in a better range to get leaned out, or would a 750 no choke horn carb put me in a better range to get leaned out? I have posted this on the FE forum as well.

Thanks for all the help.

John
