440 Dual Quad Carbs 500cfm or 600cfm???

Hello all:

I have had for the past few years two old Carter 625 on an CH 28.

They are old and real gassy smelling, I go for a drive and smell like gas.

The carbs load up on me, need throttle shafts replaced, so rather than fix an old problem, I would rather go new.,

I have a 440 .50 over bore. 10.1 Ross Pistons, stock eddy heads, tri y`s and aar style exhaust in a 73 dart sport.

The motor is nothing fancy but we have taken alot of the `race`stuff off and have put the car back to a cruiser car.

Now with two kids on a Sunday drive we get gassed out. No fun.

I would like to think that the two 500`s would do the trick, as they are on the small side.

We run it progressive, so maybe the 600`would be a better choice, seeing as we run off the front carb, till I really get on it, which in the city is rare.

Either way, I need to eliminate the gassy smell.

I have read some posts from late 2008 and 2009 with Andy F`s big stroker 600hp and dual 500`s and thought I have only 450 hp and 451 cubic inches so maybe follow suit.

Any thoughts.
