So the bronco I bought has a newer edelbrock 1406 600 cfm carb. I don’t know much about it other than it bogs under load and the electric choke isn’t hooked up. I am thinking that a 600 is too big for a stock 289. My cousin is a mechanic and has a few carbs at his shop and said I can take my pick they just need a rebuild kit and “should” be good to go. What size carb would work best and what brand? I am going to his shop this week to see what all he has but I do know he has some holleys, quadrajets, edelbrock, and carters. I am thinking something in the 480-525 range.
I don’t want to mess with the current carb if it is too big for the 289.
Thoughts? Thanks
Matt
