Plus, it's not the carbs you need to replace- the factory Rochesters modified correctly will work just fine supporting 600+ HP while still N/A.
It's the manifold itself that is the choke point.
Compare the Pontiac design to the Chev or Mopar design that uses the Holley 2300's from the factory and you'll see exactly what I mean.
While we're on the subject, I actually just scored the Holy Grail of BBC TriPowers- a complete '67 Corvette 427/435HP factory high rise TriPower setup.
I'm not exaggerating a bit when I say I feel like I just won the lottery...

What are you going to do with the BBC 435hp setup? Guessing selling it.
My old man has a 435hp yellow vert.
