bigger is always better as it can be "detuned" its hard to pull something out of nothing if you have one thats to small. a buddy of mine who is an engine builder posed on another forum saying he went to a show where a guy had a 770 holley on an 8hp briggs an stratton just to proove it can be done.

Depends on how ya want it to run. U want low end low rpm torque? Stick with a 650 or a 670. U want high rpm power cuz its gonna be held at the higher rpms for periods of time? Go with the 750. I run a 670 sreet avenger on my trucks 408 thats specd similar to urs. Wasnt very driveable out of the box, but with some rejeting and a change in shooter size it kicks butt

750 should be fine 850 would be alittle big but would work and have extra when you go bigger!  I have a 355 with about the same specs you got I run on a 600 holley and it chould use a 750 for the hi rpm runs...

Depends on how high of rpms you running
Up 6500 rpms go with a 650 dp
Running over 6500 rpms must go bigger carb to feed the Rs
That's what holly told me

Get an Offenhauser 6-pack with 3 Holley 2-barrels, hook up as many as it can stand! This one has Rochesters on it, get adapter plates and let it scream. Notice the linkage, you can disconnect the link to the other carbs in a couple seconds for streetability ;D
