the Holley 3310(750 vac.) would also be a good carb for a street 440
Or this. Pretty much the default carb for street hot rods.

Thanks for the advice. I will go with the brock 800 avs then.
Now on another note, I want to add a complete MSD ignition system.
What distributor and what ignition box would you use with this engine? opinions?
Try getting a Firecore dist and see if you can get a 6-al ignition... might try the Firecore coil also JMO

Street engine? Whatever you pick, take a distributor with vacuum advance.
I use MSD Pro Billet, 6Al and Blaster(2?) coil. No vacuum advance, lightest springs and whichever bushing gave the most initial advance, worked great, putting same setup in my 383...

IF you could find a good 1..
Go for the gusto, put 3 Holley 2300s on it..
Plenty of TQ's around, lack of strip kits are the issue for the average consumer. I just drill out or modify my own stuff.
