Hey,

I will be rebuilding my engine soon (original 260, no modifications) and I
want to use a new carburetor. The original owner had a Holley 650cfm on it
and I understand that something smaller will work better.

So which is a better solution, a Holley 1848 (465cfm) or an Edelbrock 1403
(500cfm).

Is anybody using a FiTech system? I have a friend who is using the FiTech
Go EFI 4 on his old truck and he swears by it.

Thanks,
Joe Brown
