6.3L V8 383 needs new carb

[Andru_Z]

Need a new carb. A lot of new stuff under the hood, but all of it is pretty much stock. Should I go Holley, Edelbrock, other? 650, 750, 800?

Thoughts?

Edelbrock 650.

[A383Wing]

I agree...anything larger would be a waste

[Andru_Z]

Awesome. Thanks, guys!

[Andru_Z]

Apologies for posting this question in the wrong category.

[Andru_Z]

Does it matter if the carb is AFB or AFS?

[A383Wing]

I like the AFB....but there are others that like the AVS....either would be fine....I don't think you can get a new AFB anymore

Thanks, Bryan.

The Edelbrock Performer is an AFB and their Thunder series are AVS carbs.  For a simple just bolt it on and forge it carb the AFB is great and if you want a little more tunability then the AVS is a great step up.  Its got a spring loaded door in the secondary side where the AFB has a counter weighted door.  I'll leave the modular carbs out of it since it sounds to me like you just want a set and forget carb on a stock mill.

That's helpful. Would you recommend manual or electric choke?

[Ghoste]

I think an electric one would be the way to go for yours.

[Andru_Z]

Awesome. Thanks! Lots of choices out there!!

[A383Wing]

yea...electric would be easier for installation....

[Ghoste]

Sure are a lot of choices.   You're right.

mopar muscle I swore did a comparison and dyno test on a stock block 383 started with a 750 ended up with the dominator 1050 model and they said they peaked in HP/TQ with the 850.

The 850 made slightly more hp then the 750 but on a moderate street build a 750 holley is perfect. Good throttle response and lots of power. I run one and I love it.

Id go with a holley or proform over a edelbrick imo
