Default HP500 carb upgrade

Thinking of heads and cam,if so,what carb size upgrade would be best or just stay with 800cfm ?
Would only change carb when i do heads an cam.

Using same dart manifold !

Maybe 950cfm?

Thanks

Use the stock carb and send it to Nickerson for some tweaking.

+1 for Nickerson. He worked my old 800 to flow about 970. It ran perfect when he was done.
