Edelbrock question
I have a 86 F250 Supercab with a 460 C6 trans.I want to buy a edelbrock carb but from what I have been reading is a 600cfm would be mainly for a small block.So which one should I get? a 600 or 750 Cfm edelbrock carb.the 460 is a stock engine for now.I do plan to upgrade the intake and exhaust that's about it.Thanks

I have a #1407 on my basically stock 460 (hedders, Edelbrock Performer 460 manifold, Edelbrock Performer 750cfm carb) and it works great.
Just my opinion...

It'll work fine off the factory choke wire, or from the stator terminal on the alternator if the rest of the factory wire is missing. You may have to hook up a ground wire with that carb too.
