The boosters are sized to a carb so I would get a 750
booster... as for jetting you can look at this list
and find your carb... I would set it up stock and work
from there

You will need to get a tool for installing boosters, its not cheap, by the time you buy the tool & the boosters you'll be out more then a new Proform mainbody, i'd just junk that one or use it as a paper weight.

The Proform mainbody is really nice, it comes with jets/gaskets/base screws & extra air bleeds if your useing 4 corner idle, plus instructions for the adverage hobbiest. Just stay away from the "knockoff" on e-bay, its cheap, but i wouldn't trust it.

Here ya go. The PF is 20.00 cheaper then the Holley.

The best place to start with the jetting is with the jets in the list that was attached. Work up in steps of two. When the car drops off back up one and you should be good.

Are you sure the booster is broken or is it what some of us call the "snubby" booster. There are boosters made with and without the brass tips on them. We run the boosters with the brass extensions with the larger pumps on our 340 Duster. I have an old Holley book, which has been out of print for a number of years, and I will look to see what booster numbers were in the 750.

To remove and change the booster you need a large phillips screw driver to remove the center screw. This screw has a tapered seat. When you remove the booster there is a small gasket. With the booster removed, don't hit the accelerator. There is a small needle under the booster and it will be pushed out by the accelerator. I will add some photo before the day is over.

I am sorry, I just realized that the "booster" on the right side is broken off. I went out to the shop and took pictures of the "squirters" and when photographing the top of the carb I went back and looked closer at his photo.

The information concerning replacing the "booster" is correct. It is a task and replacing the body will be much simplier.

Dont let the booster thing spook ya, all the carb shops have them and alot of carb builders.

Local shop wanted alot to put six boosters in my six pack carbs, member here had a buddy, did all six including boosters for $100.

Check your local carb shops that dont ad. as a performance shop as they will have the same tool but a normal price.

By the time you spend the $$ getting booster/boosters repaired or replaced you can buy a PF MB & he will have a much better carb, come on guys, trying to repair a basic MB where the boosters are broke off is just a waiste of $$$, spend it wisely, get a new MB, there just over a 100 bucks .
