Wondering if my current Holley 750 vacuum secondary carb is OK for my STREET car. Would something bigger or a DP make it run stronger?

70 Challenger, 3400 lbs, 4 speed, 3:55 rear, 340 stroked to 373. Engine dyno's at 420 hp.

10 to 1, cam: 231/237 @.050 w/525 lift, 10 inches vac at idle, Performer RPM intake ported to X heads, TTI headers to 2.5 pipes.

It runs good but I can't help wondering it it would like more air?

^ Mr yuck is right, if it runs well no need to change it, but if you like to, instead of getting a bigger carb, rent sometime on a chassis dyno and dial that 3310 series in on it! I picked up quite a bit just jetting and setting timing right.

The DP will get you off the line quicker... the 750
was stock on a 340 so I'm sure more carb will make
more power... but is it worth it to you... borrow
a bigger carb and try it
