choice of carb

[Dave Harms <civiltech@xxxxxxx>]

I have a 383 4 speed in my car which has been rebuilt (both engine and 
tranny). Long story short:I had them rebuilt about 5 years ago. Got the 
car back and it overheated, battery kept going dead, so I parked it in 
the garage for a couple years. Took it to another mechanic last 
September finally and I had a new radiator, carb and misc. other items 
already purchased to put on it. Got the car back in December. He also 
added an electronic fuel pump. I've driven it three times since 
December. Not being a motor head, I do know that a "beefier" cam was put 
in to get a little more power out of it by the first mechanic. What 
carburetor would be a good choice for me? The carb that I had 
pre-purchased for the second mechanic to install was the 600cfm 
Edelbrock model 1406. The other day it was finally nice enough (live by 
Denver) to take it out for a spin. I was trying to be careful with the 
car as it is somewhat of a fresh rebuild, but had to check out the 4bbl 
for the first time. To my surprise, I never felt it jump when the 4bbl 
kicked in as I would with the old Holly. That is why I'm asking what is 
the right carb for this application. I won't be racing it; just want the 
occaisonal rush of big engine displacement power and sound. Sorry for 
the long post....
