670 would work great its more about venturi size than cfm

should be somewhere around 280rwhp

if the carb is adjusted correctly, it will run just fine. i run a quadrajunk on my 67 that was built by a local guy that really knows his stuff. i had a demon and he built this thing for my combo-they're about 750 cfm or so and it really woke up my car-smoother acceleration, great throttle response, etc. 670 cfm with your mods (=good volumetric efficiency) should be no problem

650-670 is about right on. You could get away with a 600 and probably get snappier throttle response but you'll be fine with the 670 as it'll give you room to grow.
