    Hey Guys I have a pretty much stock 302 in an off topic car, I picked up an Offy 360 intake cheap. What whould be a good carb match for it? The car was built in the early 70's I was thinkin to find a carb from that vintage to match. What do you think?

  3. 600 CFM should would work. HRP
     
  4. 500 CFM Carter or Edelbrock AFB

    Basically stock....

    Vacuum secondary 500-650 CFM Holley 4160, Carter AFB (Weber-Edelbrock). 302 needs only about 500 CFM at like 7000 RPMs. A carb on the small side will be easy to live with. Good throttle responce and MPG.

    Because the 360 is a semi-open type manifold, a smaller carb will have the same effect as a bigger carb would on a conventional dual plane manifold. Based on what you said about your engine 500 cfm would be a better match than 600cfm.
