It ran a vacuum secondary 390cfm 4BBL. It ran perfectly. With a 3.08 10-bolt and 14” wheels it used to easily pull my heavy Lewis Clinker and trailer up slippery boat ramps. It used to be able to lap Amaroo Park in sub 70 seconds running shitty old worn out Radial T/A’s, and dynoed about 130hp or thereabouts at the back wheels.
So might be worth either getting the carby professionally rebuilt (maybe $350) or buying a 390?

i like the qft hr 450.. had 465 on and then put the 450 on. no more hp but picked up 45nm very responsive.. almost half the price as the 390

Found an interesting read on manifolds here that backs up mechanics view. as in there are none that are just right for this setup.
Both options sound good, will start looking around for used of either qft hr 450 or 390 and cain manifold and in the meantime .

Mine was slightly different, didn’t have the divider like this one:

John used to make manifolds for Redline too, and they bought all his moulds when he shut up. Which is probably why this Redline blue/black motor one looks similar to the first link:

Even the speedway guy's used 500 holleys.
I have experienced the power and economy of these.
Anyhow, it is up to Chips.
