Phil-
Call Biggs, give them them all of the relevants details on your engine and they will build to suit. I have one of their carbs on my car now and I know someone else who does as well, and both mine and theirs were almost spot on out of the box and have been absolutely trouble free. Good support and prices are very reasonable as well. I hope this helps with de-modernizing your build.

Default Be Honest

Be honest with yourself. How many times is it going to see 7,000 rpm. How many times will you load the engine to use 600 hp.

You're better served to have a slightly lower HP that is drivable that comes up a little short when you try to get to 6400 rpm than vice versa.

Are you gonna' race it or try to drive it on the street. Do yourself a favor - be honest.
