The Ford Barn

I have a Navarro intake (it’s old but you can still buy the same one, it’s the one with the bracket for off side linkage (why you would want that I haven’t figured out)) It uses a butt ugly adapter to use a Carter WCFB. I think the WCFB is probably more carb than ideal and the adapter is ugly so I would like to install a more appropriate carb. Motor is 272 with approx 8.5:1 comp, a Max 1 Cam, and Red’s tube headers. Suggestions on a carb for me to be looking for? Suggestions on what cfm I would want (won’t be winding this all that high it’s a strictly street motor in an F-1
