A 750 will be overkill. 650 should be just right, get a double pumper, vacuum secondaries are boring.

Anyone ever tried more than a 650CFM carb? I have a 750 Holley that I would love to use but I am afraid it will be too much. Granted it does have vacuum secondaries which might make all the difference in the world!! I guess I'll find out soon enough!
Thanks,
Mike
I use the 11.0 plugs from Mazdaspeed. You can also get them from Racing Beat. 11.5 would be fine too, that is what Mazdaspeed reccomended, but my engine builder said 11.0 so I went with that.

Whatever you do, do NOT use a hot street plug like a 8 or 9 heat rating. It'll crack apexes.

750 is too much carb.
