I don't think a 750 cfm would be right on your 351, unless you are running high horsepower. For low end, the 625 is right. I think if you cam it, use what ever lifters, pushrods, rockers, and springs that match that cam. Don't tell yourself that you need more cam than you really do. Be realistic. A Performer cam, or a good RV cam is a nice choice. I know it doesn't have an earth shattering lopey idle, but like I said. You have to be realistic. I would use the Performer manifold. I have used two of these in the past and had good luck. (one on a 350 chevy, and a 360 ford)
I hope this helps some of your headache.
