Default For the carb guys.......

What is the biggest carb I could go with on a 5.0.

I have a MSD billet distributor with MSD 6al. I have a holley fuel pump.

Would a 750 or 7010 work well?

all depends on your modifications, as they say with camshafts/lift, bigger isn't always better.
there are calculations that will put you close, I just need to dig them up.

I have to rebuild my 650 or I can get foxbodypats old carb (7010 with some work done to it) for a great deal.

I just dont wanna get it, and it be to much.

What should I do?

750 would be way too big for your motor, especially a worked 750
