I currently have on my 289 hipo a 4bbl from Holley, 650 cfm, with a Edelbrock Performer RPM intake.
It runs smooth and wasnt too expensive, great power for the money. It also looks great, alot better than the painted blue stock ford intake I had. I threw on a carb spacer too for an added effect.

Hope that helps.

Buy a 700 cfm double pumper and add #37 squirters and the 289 will wake up!
