i built a 525 air boat engine it left my shop with a 750 new in a box to go along with the build the air boat came back with a 950 holley i told them for the rpm of the engine were i built it to make max power it and lower rpm use it was to big of a carb well after washing the walls down and just not working it came back and i put a HP 750 back on it works great now .alot of times your better with a smaller carb for street use as for some thing light with a stall you can go up on the cfm. i run a 1150 on a 468 that work great with some stall and gear this car had a 850 1050 but the 1150 9377 list just work good i used the same 1150 on my 632 donovan it works ok had two 1150s 9377on my 573 that work good as much as i could tell use to pull up the front wheels in the shop parking lot now the carbs are on a big chief 565 that i did the machine work on they seam to do good with them ? if your running hi rpm and not low speed in a light car then you can run abit bigger carb. i may do it all wrong but i look at rpm and the cid and weight ? no formula just what i know what has work in the past
