200 Inline Carbs

[Anonymous]

Alright I'm fairly new to rebuilding engines and learning about what cams will do what combined with what carbs,intakes,valves and headers and the likes.So if it's possible try to gimme a little bit of a break if I sound like a moron.I have a 200 Inline,and I'm looking to beef it up.I know it has a pretty well bulletproof bottom end.I'm planning on adding duel valve springs,new valves,a new cam,duel out headers and the likes.Now for the question.I'm planning on modifing the intake and adding 3 1bbl carbs.I'm hoping someone can help me out and tell me who makes a good 1bbl that can be tuned down so I'm not running too rich,Cause when I got the car they had the stock carb WAY overjetted and it was drowning 2 cylinders out so I was running on 4 cylinders for about 200 miles driving the car from Cleveland to central Ohio.That was a pain in the ass getting all the carbon off the pistons and valves.Bul like I said.I need some good carbs that I can tune one with a fairly low cfm rating.Alltogether with 3 carbs I don't want to run over 350 cfms and drown that tired old 200.Thanks,Ryan

Not Cleveland but thats where I got my Mustang from.It's a '66 Coups,Vintage Burgundy,200 I6 with an automatic.She's pretty beat up with all the rust but the engine is repainted an looking good sittin on the engine stand.Looks like she has new valves,cam,crank,rods,pistons and the likes.Runs like a champ too.I dunno if you know where Mount Gilead is or not,probably not.Bout half way give or take 50 miles between Cleveland and Columbus.
