Well you could do two things - 1) sell the 650 Holley ( to big for 3.0l ) and go with a Q-Jet as mentioned early in thread. This has small primaries which make cruising better - and fairly quick throttle response - and the large secondary will flow more than enough air for WOT on a long straight. Q-Jets come in a variety of sizes as well, so look for smaller ( for lack of a better term ) one. Once you learn how to tune a Q-Jet they work wonderful. Years of experience in the straight line stuff before exposeure to twisties in Porsche. 2) go with the two barrel Holley - again need to learn tuning tricks ... find local short track - stock class "stockcars" usually run the two barrels -

If I were to do this - and have thought of it more times than not - I would shorten the runners ( which requires fab work ) ie. don't use the 3.0l SC intake runners. Look for pics of a single plane manifold (torker) to see what I mean.
