I would strongly advise against the edelbrock or Carter AFB carbs.
An SMI q-jet would be the best thing you could put on your truck.

i dont think they are all 700+, the one i have on my 350 is a 600 or 650 im pretty sure, 750 seems like a big carb for a stock-ish motor.

750 mostly. Some 305's came with an 800 cfm version. It seems like a big carb, but it's not because of the air controlled secondaries plus small primaries.
