I bought a 408 stroker with aluminum Edelbrock heads, 10:1 compression, big muthr thumpr cam with a hydraulic flat tappet cam.

I need your thoughts on:

1. Carb choice (Edelbrock says use two 500 cfm, and Holley doesn't answer their phone, but i've been told that two Holley 465 cfm are made for this application).
2. linkage (progressive or one-to-one)
3. mechanical or electric fuel pump

This will be used on a 70 Cuda, 4spd with choice of gears (3.55, 3.91, or 4.10s), 15x8" wheels and BFGs.

Not really interested in much track time, but mainly a street cruiser with a nostalgic feel and look, but clearly good throttle response and power to fry tires at will.

Tell me what has worked for you, and any pictures showing linkage are appreciated.

Thanks.
