a 650 eddie thunder series AVS or 600 eddie AFB might actually be a better carb for street manners/economy/0-5000 RPM performance. on my 360, I had MUCH better low RPM/off idle responsiveness with a 600 eddie over the 750..felt like I gained 20+ HP down around the converter flash point (~2500 RPM) and didn't lose anything up top by the butt dyno....also gained 2mpg.

Thanks for the advice. Guess I will use a smaller carb. I have a 600 Eddie and a 625 (I think) Carter. With the MSD ignition I guess I wasn't worried about overfueling but overlooked bottom end performance.Comp. XE262 it is. Any suggestions for converter?
Thanks again, Vinny
FWIW, my 360 is about 7.8:1 acutal measured (reringed longblock) with a comp XE262, and it moves my 3950 lb boat very well, keeps up with a LX hemi car from a roll, which should translate into 14's at the strip. I'm running a MP166k converter, 27" tires, 3.55 rear with an A500 OD tranny.

Summit has the "big " Summit brand cam and lifter kit on sale less than $100 and for a low compression 383 it would do a great job cheap--it really is a great street cam
