My mud truck/work truck is a 75 F100 with a 460 it had a 2 barrel when i bought it. It always ran good but you could tell it needed more. I just didnt want to fix what wasnt broke. But its all gummed up and has been troublesome lately so i think its time to go. I have a stock 4 barrel intake for it but my question is what carb to use. I have a Holley 600, a edelbrock 700, and a demon 750. witch one should I use. It hits the mud every other weekend so id like to go with my best power option instead of rebuilding the 2 barrel. What do you guys think. Ive never really used the edelbrock i had it on my dually and took it off the same month Im just not a fan i grew up with holleys so it was kind of different for me. Thanks guys your the best!

600s too small, go with the 700 eddy especially for the mud. Don't think you'll see much difference with the demon, but you can always try it later.

Use the valve float as the limiter:D.....that should happen before you damage bearings.
