Did a 2bbl kit on a Scout, worked like a champ there as well.
Going seeing you on the forum Mr, been way toooo long.
These retro fit injection systems sure look sweet and definitely the right call for a restomod build. For me , they're a bit spendy for a classic cruiser, especially once you add the supporting bits and pieces. Besides, part of the reason I bought a classic was because I get a kick out of the old school quirkiness of it. It sure is heck isn't for the performance. Lol
Thanks for suggestions. Seems a nice dual plane intake and good aftermarket carb will be a fun and worthwhile project.
Hmm, now what to do about the exhaust side of the equation.....
If you're going to stay carb, something like a 500 cfm Edelbrock would get the job done for your application and usage. They are usually bolt on and go after you set the idle speed and mixture, tend to be less fiddly than Holleys.

Yeah the last few years have been down and up for me. We'll need to catch up when this Covid business is all over.
Sine the 04 cobra, I bought a 96 cobra which was full of gremlins (it was Shawn Hyland's test mule - I didn't know lol). I sold it a year later. I went stangless for a couple years, then bought a 1970 coupe in the fall of 2019.
I'll get some pics up when i figure out how to post photos again. Its been a fun little project so far.

Yes, I was thinking a 500 would be a good choice. It might be a tad small if I decide to upgrade the heads someday but crisp throttle response is important to me so it'll probably work well even then. The 2100 has great off idle throttle response now but then ... crickets.
If your thinking long term with emphasis on throttle response (with decent mileage tossed in for free) look to a Holley 600 or 650 spread bore. Well worth the effort to make it work, yes speaking from experience with several including Dad's previous 68 390 Galaxie 500.
