I can say from experience that if you can find one, the 390 Holley will work great- 17.9's at 80mph great! That's on a stock 76 140 with a Spearco intake and a header, with T-50 trans and 3.42 gears. I drove the car all one summer and it was a blast! Orangeastre ran the same parts for a while as well- they're now listed in the "for sale" section. Don't bother asking him- he won't separate carb & intake.
The "fleet"-
72 Vega HB Drag Car -383/'Glide/9"(9.35@146.19)(5.94@117.28 1/8th)
77 Vega Estate wagon- project(someday)will have TPI305/T-5, S-10 spindles/axles
76 Vega GT- 400/4spd/9" retired from active duty(rusty)
06 Silverado 2WD ex.cab daily
03 Silverado 2WD ex.cab (retired)
06 Haulin' 20ft enclosed car transporter
06 GMC Canyon Shop truck
07 Colorado project( 5.3 4L60e swap)
99 Saturn SL1- wife's car
01 Saturn SC2- son's project
07 Saturn Ion Redline project
and 4 more Saturn "parts cars"
Note- the very act of listing all of these has made me realize I have some kind of problem.....
