My 393 in my 67 runs a 950 double pumper. If I put anything smaller on it the car slows down about 3 tenths.

Get a 750 Pro Vac from www.quickfueltechnology.com
Or if you want all out racer.....get them to custom build a double pumper.
They will build it to your motor specs.
All I can say is my 750 Pro Vac is the Best Carb I have ever seen!!!!! It performs like EFI..........let me tell you it kicks azz.....and it was reasonable.
The customer service is top notch........talk to Marty Brown.....the guy knows how to make power!!!!!

Trust me......the ProVac 750 from Quick Fuel is WAY, WAY more carb....for about the same cash. It is completely modified and tested by the guys who build $1000.00+ race carbs for all types of racing!
Do yourself a favor.......BUY ONE.......you will not be dissapointed! I would call them and talk to Marty.....give him your engine specs and he will build the carb to your set-up.......it will blow your socks off!
PS: I have absolutely nothing to do with the company......I am simply one very happy owner.

What is your projected use? If its a street car and you want to drive it to shows and what not.....go with the 750 vacuum secondaries.
Here is an example though.....
My stroker (which is a very different motor than yours) is a 408 cleveland.
I just made 330 or so RWHP with a 770 vacuum secondary carb.
The motor made 393 RWHP with a double pumper that was flowing 850.
My car with the AOD is getting 15 miles to the gallon (AOD, 9 inch rear, 4.11 gears) with the 770 carb. That to me is very impressive given the power it makes. Once I switch to the 850 full time I expect that number to go down drastically because of the nature of double pumpers.
I would expect your motor to run good with a 750 VS and run better with an 850 VS and even better still with an 850 DP.

In my experience......yes. The guy knows his stuff and gives you great support.
I hope you aren't being sarcastic, because those guys deserve more than that BS.

I think that if it is a street car that sees the occasional strip, you are way better off with a vacuum sec carb.......the throttle response is better for street seeing as the secondaries respond to engine airflow needs.
The ProVac 750 that I have flows well over 800cfm wet! Yet it retains wicked throttle response due to the set-up and vac secondaries.
I sold my Holley 750 DP to buy the ProVac.......BEST move ever!
