Default 302 blowthrough carb help

I hae a 302 with eld. heads, trickflow intake, paxton s/c ,and much other stuff....

I also have a elderbroct victor carb intake, and i was looking for a demon blowthrough carb, but i was wondering what size i should get..

i am running 7psi right now, but i am plannin on using a smaller crank puller ( 2.75) i dont know how much boost that will gain me.

anyways what size should i get.. theres choices within 650, 750, 800, and 850.

i was thiking 850 but idk.... also with the EFI setup i ran 42lb injectors, but ran around 60lbs... also will be using zen nitrous, whatever the line can flow. ( no pill) and if any a 75-100 shot

You darn well better know how to tune a carb, especially in a supercharged setup. Blow-through applications will require tuning. I've heard that Pro Systems pretty much sets the carb up for you and eliminates most, if not all the necessity for tuning, but you're playing with fire if you go to a blow through setup and don't know what you're doing

Personally, I'd go with a carb thats been setup for blow through. An out of te box carb isnt going to work nearly as well...

Not cheap, but worth it. BTW, are you going to run a hat, or a full enclosure?

Oh yeah, check this site out.
