What Dave said - we need to know what else has been done to the engine. If it's stock, the Victor Jr will be a major disappointment as it's made for 3,500 - 8,000 RPM operating range and will be a big pig on a stocker.
In the stock form, an Edelbrock Performer with a Q-Jet is tough to beat for idle to 5500 RPM. A performer RPM and a Q-Jet works very well with headers and Flowmasters and breaths well to 6500 RPM.

Don't forget a cool air cleaner!!

Is this a daily driver ??? or a weekend warrior ???
As has been said the Victor is way over the top for either really, Also you have to think about what your going to be using it for, power or economy, If it never see's any serious RPM you could use a smaller carb.Its aweful lonesome in the saddle since my horse died.

What he means about being a weekend warrior - do you race it? If it's a cruiser - that Victor, Jr needs to go and be replaced by a dual plane like an Edelbrock Performer and possibly even an Edelbrock #1406 600 CFM or Holley, possibly an 1850 (or whatever the latest p/n is). The Victor series is a WOT(wide open throttle) intake and used mostly to raceDave W

No I don't race it. It's just something fun to drive on nice days.
