I've decided to de-electronics the little GM 60V6 that I am going to use for my build. Towards that end, I've gotten an Edelbrock Torker II manifold, and an old school Mallory dual point distributor. The missing link is the carburetor. More specifically, something around 275-390 cfm, 2 or 4 bbl, 700R4 friendly, and affordable.
My original plan was to use the 287 cfm version of the Motorcraft 2100/2150 2bbl....simple, reliable, and not sensitive to running at extreme angles (see my 700R4 positioning thread). Unfortunately, so far I've found no way to connect the 700R4's TV cable to one. A several hour search uncovered one off-hand mention of having accomplished the connection successfully.
The easy route would be the Edelbrock recommended 390 cfm Holley 8007, but they are price even for pretty grundgy looking used ones. Also, at least in my mind, they are way overkill for my engine. According to my cfm calculator, 275 cfm is the maximum for this engine.
Any insight would be greatly appreciated
