As far as a carb choice, I like vacuum secondaries. I would start out with a Holley List 1850 which is a 600 cfm carb and very plentiful. I've never been able to tune a par of 390's or 450's to run nearly as good as those 600's after being modified. Heck you might even be able to run a pair of 750's.

My 390's have the vacuum secondaries and I bought the Holley vacuum balance tube kit that ties both carbs in together so they open both at the same time.My car had 600 on it when I got it and they were just too plain big for a little 289.

I'm more show than go and just want something that runs decent and is not stumbling on the street and is not backfiring and embarrasing me at a cruise..

I followed my build from a indepth Car Craft article back in the late 70's that showed how to build a TR for the street-and that is what they recommended- a r/v/performnace style cam. One of the best articles ever.
