Default Carb for 2nd gen chevy camaro.

Hello, I am a new member of this forum about camaros is my first post, and start doing a question that could getting a doubt and not make a mistake: I have a camaro RS 79, and the engine is a 350ci, I have an intake manifold high flow - single plane, and I would like to know that carburetor could be better for having what if a holley 750cfm or 850cfm and that, I would like a prompt response to my concern. I apologize if I am not very clear in expressing my idea, but I am not American and I effort with the English language.

If the engine is somewhat stock I would suggest a 650 carb somewhat because of the single plan manifold. Stack torque convertor and highway gears go vacuum secondary.

Sounds like you are asking what size carb should you put on a 350ci engine? You will probably get many opinions, but (assuming) you dont have alot of "extras" on your engine a 600-650 would be plenty of carb, and gas is getting expensive. 700-750 would be ok, but 800-850 is(my opinion)too much and unnecessary for an unmodified small block chevy.

Welcome, by the way.
