Hi All

I have a 66 GT Coupe 289 4bbl. It came with a new Holley but wanted to replace with a 4BBl Autolite.
I have a clean 4bbl C6AF F that has 6A F stamped on the side... 1.08 v
Would this be a good carb to run on a 289 stock block??
Looks it was made for the 390/428.
Is it too much?? I thought 1.08ven would be good...
Thoughts/advise... really appreciate!

The non-HiPo 289 4V engines came with a 1.08 carburetor, which is rated for 480 CFM. Your C6AF-F was used on 390 with automatic transmission.
