I'm going with the 454R and a decent 1050 on this one..... ran that set up on my 472 and it was great..... 1050 was almost out of the box too.......

What model 1050 are you using, and what types of changes did you need before?

Thanks,

I am running a 468" with port matched GM aluminum heads, .712/.712 cam around 274/278 duration. Goes 6 flat @ 3000#. Using the Edelbrock 454R out of the box, Holley 9375 1050 out of the box with a little more jet. Decided on the 9375 because it is annular discharge, supposed to work better than the 8896 with a stop. Have been very satisfied with what I use, but haven't really tried anything else. Good luck.
