A 750 vacuum secondary carb would do the trick for you.

For his engine setup, he doesn't need a DP. The style of the carb would depend on your intake manifold, whether speadbore or square bore. You can get a 3310 Holley if you need a square bore.

a 650 vac. secondary or the new 670 avenger carbs will work great for these set-up's also. the only thing that's going to suffer is top end power, i can notice a difference between the 670 i've been using now for a while and the 750 carb. a tiny increase in m.p.g. but not a whole lot. but top end power is not that important to me because in a f-150 4x4 you really don't need to go 100 miles per hour, unless your going down the quarter mile. it's mostly off the line power were looking for. but you like going really fast go for the 750 there is nothing wrong with these carbs. for these big cu.inchers.
