Carb advise

I've got a 1977 ford f100 with a stock 300, i've got some dynomax headers and a clifford fourbarral carb intake i would like to install. If i switch out to the headers and intake, will i be albe to add a 600cfm holley performance carb?
If not any sugestions as to what i should go with would be apreciated, thnx.

It depends...What are you going to use your truck for (daily,driver, off-road in the bush, etc.)? When you have that answered you can start your research here and on the FSP Forum for appropriate mods. That being said, you can bolt on anything but the results might not meet your expectations.
The 300 I6 is a great engine but it is severely choked in the head so some porting/polishing is usually appropriate. Comp, Crane, Reed, and others make Cams that can help you achieve whatever it is you want from your engine.
Lots of options to sort through...take your time and do your research.

The truck will be used as a daily driver. If the 600 is two much for daily driving without cracking into the motor, i also have a motorcraft 2150. Though i would prefer a fourbarral.
