    I think you would be alright up to a 650cfm on a stock 351W.

    its not a stock 351 its a 358 and i dont think there is a road demon 650 so i guess i would have to go with the 625 or a speed demon 650cfm

    I'd start talking to USAF46270. What he has is probably the exact same as I have on my 351C. Bought that carb for the P.O. when I thought he was going to be my future son-in-law. For 35 bucks, its a steal (EDIT: Like about $200 off) - even if you have to install the "Power-Valve Backfire Safety". All things (cam,porting,rockers, etc) being equal; 2V Cleveland heads flow better than any factory-stock W heads, so my .030-overbored 357 Cleveland has the potential to suck more air than your Windsor. The 600 CFM Holley is highly recommended for that block; unless you're going with lotsa valve lift and planning on keeping the RPM's above 3500.

    BTW how did you get 358? Did you go .035 over? :scratch:
