What Edelbrock Carb should I put on 440 going in 71 Charger?

[CamelSmoker]

Stepson and I are nearing the end of this Project. 71 Charger was 318, drum brakes. Now has improved aftermarket Front End, Brembo Disc brakes all the way around, with a new Flowmaster Exhaust, and The 440 in question( came out of a 74 truck)carb that was on it is junk. Which Edelbrock should I go with want electric choke, 750 Cfm. Not trying to run at the strip or anything like that just a toy for fun. Thanks for input.

I have the 1406 on my 440 with a Edelbrock Dual Plane manifold. Iron heads, Big Headers, etc.. Seems to run really good.

Will do but that is still a way off still waiting on new grill and paint is going to be orange with black trim has bulge hood and put a spoiler on it

That's only 600 CFM, he asked for 750.

I'm a Holley guy, but I used a Carter aftermarket AFB, which became the Edelbrock, on my 360 tow vehicle. It performed GREAT. I forget if it was 650 or 750 CFM. Very smooth. Handled the wide variety of my Minnesota climate very well. The Edelbrock is the same carb. A 440 will like anything in the 650 to 750 CFM range, unless you have improved(pocket ported) the heads & upped the cam a bit. Then the 750 would be a base.

I agree with IronBuilt... I'm running an Eddy 1411 (750cfm) on my 340. It'll be just fine on your 440.

How about an Edelbrock 1407 750cfm. 440'

That's a manual choke, he said that he wanted electric.

Eddie does make a Electric attachment for it, maybe a 1408 is the carb #??? I have a 1407, personally OP? Your in TX, do you really need a choke? I don't have one and I don't have a problem that non-chocked cars can be like my /6. Just spitballin. Good Luck

Depending on where in Texas he is, it might get cold. I know that Amarillo winters are brutal.

I put a 750 cfm Edelbrock 1407 on the 440 in my 1967 R/T. I bought the electric choke kit and Mopar linkage adapter. It runs great. I jetted the secondaries one size richer than stock. The engine is stock with 906 heads and cast iron Magnum exhaust manifolds. I have the same carb on the 440 in my 1964 Polara. This engine has 452 heads and Edelbrock Performer intake manifold, stock cast iron exhaust manfolds. I smoothed all the Edelbrock lettering off intake and painted it engine colour, just to be sneaky. I haven't fired this one up yet. It has been sleeping for about 20 years.

I'd recommend the 1913 AVS2 800CFM.

I'm in Reno with no problems starting in cold weather. I guess it's all in the tune???

I’m a fan of the carter avs / afb, the new edelbrocks are very similar to the old ones. A few minor differences but very user friendly and reliable. A 750 would be fine, just pick up a kit for the linkage, thick carb gasket for under it and turning kit for it and your set...

 

[Ranger16]

I've got the 1411 on my 383 (with the Performer RPM manifold) and it runs just fine. Should work well on a 440.

 

[furious70]

I don't like any of the electric choke models. They are jetted lean but even after I fix that they never seem to run as good as the manual choke ones. I don't know why.
Full disclosure, I have a new in box 1407 for sale on this site at a discount.

770cfm Street Avenger Holley would be my choice
