Arny, strictly on the cfm rating, that should be sufficient. Are you using a stock manifold? I think that carb is square bore so it should fit. I don't know if you will have trouble with the linkage or not. What kind of transmission is in your car? If it isn't a TH400 you might have to work to find linkage for the transmission kickdown function. I don't know. Maybe someone else could help you on that. Olds64 used a similar Edelbrock on his 394 in his '64 98 and the engine liked the carb but we had trouble with the linkage as I mentioned above.
